Successful Coanda Effect Quadcopter - How Tom 3d Printed his own Coanda Effect Quadcopter

Coanda Effect is an interesting aerodynamic effect that has been used in many flying objects.

It has been also in the media for long time as the main explanation for flying saucers.

But many toys and drones have been made around it.

Today I found this interesting quadcopter that uses the Coanda Effect for creating lift.

Tom has used this printed impeller to generate lift and thrust for his Coanda Effect Quadcopter.

Instead of using traditional propellers, he decided to 3d print his own impeller from different designs.

Impossible Aerospace Quadcopter US-1 Completes flight across black desert on one charge

Impossible Aerospace US-1 has completed its first flight across black desert in Nevada with one charge.

With and against desert wind, the quadcopter has managed to completed its maiden flight with that single charge.

The Flying STAR robot, a hybrid flying crawling quadcopter robot

This is a new quadcopter that can transform to move on wheels. It can fly and move on ground using thrust generated by its propellers.



This quadcopter design is capable of transforming its shape enabling it to fold in degrees.

Modify your old RC Car into that new modern smartphone controlled car with Arduino and Bluetooth

Who have every played with his toy RC car?
Today you can turn your old RC car into an advanced Android RC car using Arduino and Bluetooth shield in simple straight forward steps.

First you need to get the car that fits all of those simple components required for the new control circuit.


Then you need to get all of the stuff out of it. You can find room for your control board as those modern circuits are much smaller than regular ones.

What you’ll need

Arduino UNO
HC-06 Bluetooth shield
L293D IC
12v Lipo battery pack
Some resistors

And you need the program that controls the circuit

Beginner's Dream Quadcopter - Arduino and Bluetooth Micro Quadcopter

This is sure the Beginner's Dream Quadcopter. I've searched a lot for a Quadcopter like this. Today I've found it.

I didn't ask too much. But I couldn't find it until today. And that's why I wanted to share it with you.

Why would it make the Beginner's Dream Quadcopter?

Simplicity
This is one of the simplest quadcopter circuit I've seen recently.  It uses Arduino Nano as its main controller. As for quadcopter stabilization it uses 6050 MPU Module.
User control interfacing circuit is achieved via HC-06 Bluetooth module. This means that you can control this little quadcopter from your smartphone.

Motor drive circuits is built using four transistors.

Skyreo FX1 Drone

The Key Features:

Auto-takeoff: With one tap one the button, the quad copter will switch on it’s motors and rise to a pre-set height. It will then hover at that point until you direct it where to go
