In this video, we test the position and velocity control of the JetQuad by attempting to take-off and land at the same spot (got close but no cigar). In the future we can upgrade the drone with an infrared beacon for precision Landing. Also, as one can see all the panels have been removed from the JetQuad - this the stripped-down version that can accommodate a variety of bodies. #uas #uav #jetquad #precision #vtol #takeoff #landing #vertical #stability #control #velocity #position #drone
Impressive progress! The precision in take-off and landing is key, and it’s exciting to see how JetQuad is evolving. Looking forward to seeing the next steps with the infrared beacon upgrade!
Great testing and progress!?? The JetQuad's position and velocity control during take-off and landing are promising
That’s pretty cool.
This is going to get the flying motorcycle off the ground!!!
That’s awesome!

1 年Have you considered adding a delta wing to the jet quad? I've been following you guys for a while now and I love the idea of a compact, high-speed, response drone for when speed and power is critical. However, the obvious issue is fuel consumption for these benefits. So have you considered adding any wing configurations to reduce power to the two forward turbines to try increasing flight time?
