Love this, my father paid the price of my experimental 10 year old self. One afternoon after building and making several attempts to get a lego helicopter off the ground, I had decided i just needed more rpms from the motor. First doubling my voltage and the tripling it. The prop exploded when I used a motor from a dremel tool... just as I was getting excited and said dad look... the helicopter was unstable but coming off the ground...... a huge piece of the prop flew hitting my father just above the eye, blood and cussing abound. The prop hit him with the sound notably similar to the sound a golfball might make..... the flying ninja sword of terror was not done.. as it flew across the room hitting my mother.... her response was heyyyyyy what was that.... she was engrossed in a TV show and unaware my father needed stitches. My dad half crying, half laughing, and bleeding so badly says son that needs work!!!! 2" scar above his left eye and a story he talked about often. I am now 35 and my father is gone, the torch has been passed to my 5 year old..... with more safety guidance.

[@johncontreras5007]

So, Aviation mechanic here. With that little bit that you were using the helicopter blades, that's an interesting tidbit of information. There's a sweet spot in your angle of attack, (The angle between the direction your relative air is moving and the airfoil [the blade]) around... 2-3 degrees where you'll produce the most thrust, though since those lego parts aren't the best aerodynamics-wise, you might have to seek it out. Remember kids, steeper angles won't always make more push, the thinner you slice the air, the more efficient you get.

[@amoron4203]

John Contreras learned somthing new today. Thanks.

[@simran1992]

Civil engineer here, idk what I will do with that info but it was delicious :D

[@tworad4315]

I feel a lot of people don’t get this, an example for how important the angle is is, look at the blue knobs in a baron-58, they are for angling the blades, if the knobs are there they are important, these LEGO helicopters aren’t getting more lift because they should start with no angle and then the angle should rise with speed but go to normal angle when at max speed

Three are unstable either due to minor difference between properllers. Four properllers, active stabilization. That's why propelled stable flying devices are called quadrocopters.

[@norwhale8059]

@@RichardxXxGeorgi It's just so heavy that it would take more power to topple it over than the propellers can provide. This was also being done here by adding some weight with bricks but I think it would still work better with 3 propellers.

9:53 it somehow sounds like a plane is going down, it's like you're in a forest at night and then you hear this distant sound of a propeller plane crashing down somewhere or it had an aerial breakup

[@hyperplayer22]

Its also remind sound when you defeat ender dragon

[@sadblueyluey4696]

lol you are both right. and it sounds kinda like a lower på pitch sirenhead

[@enterprism5298]

no, it's the sound of a Ju 87 Stuka german dive bomber's Jericho Sirens, planes don't create that sound when diving/crashing, only the Stuka can do that artificially cause hitler put those Jericho sirens on it. it's only a movie thing of putting the siren sound to diving aircraft so yeah planes don't make that sound

If you guys are wondering why the small wing x8 was not an improvement at all is because of something called fluid dynamics, the air wasn’t able to reach the other props, just creating more problems

[@heli400]

TheWeirdKid the air was reaching the other props, problem is the air is at speed or faster than the props are able to push against to create any more thrust

[@ansel8935]

thank u snas untertale...

[@rlaxton666]

@@heli400 I wonder if you could create stators between the stages to straighten out the flow combined with increasing pitch? Might need to be in a duct to work properly. A axial compressor out of Lego.

@@Bricks.Master.Builders Tried it. LEGO motors/batteries don't have a high enough energy density to be light enough for LEGO propellers to generate enough lift for a non-tethered machine.

[@bradleyj.fortner2203]

I've seen lots of lego frames powered by RC plane/drone parts. But, Lego should release a few high powered Technic battery/motor kits that enable enthusiasts to take flight. The tech exists, I'm just not sure about the demand.

[@emielleclercq]

@@bradleyj.fortner2203the problem is that all these high power batteries aren't safe enough to the standard of Lego. Wrongly charging or connecting them could make them explode.

But having unnecessary gears and connectors used will create more mass, and hence greater gravity to overcome with the lift force.

Waste of even more motor power.

[@paulvangemmeren9351]

How would you shift gears while the machine was airborne? That would require a full gearbox, not to mention another motor to shift said gearbox, or, god forbid, an automatic transmission; either option would just about double the weight of the craft.
