Yep, variable pitch quadcopters aren't very common, they're only used in (research-y) areas where stability is key (speeding up and slowing down propellers is slow compared to changing tilt). I agree that at this point it's approximately as expensive as a heli, just with different dynamics. RE: Cyclic pitch on quads - I don't think anyone put cyclic pitch on quads before. I think I derived a way to make use of 13DoF for stability and dynamics that are impossible on a heli (hovering while tilting, moving back and forth without tilt, etc). PM me if you're interested in the idea, it's a little hard to describe in words. |
