Derek from Veritasium asked Xyla Foxlin to build a functional model, and she goes through the trials and tribulations of that in quite a bit of detail in her video here:

There's a key aspect discussed in 7:10 relating to the ratio of the propeller pitch to the vehicle forward motion that is necessary for this to work.
(Xyla's channel is a great follow overall btw)
- mianos 5y agoAlthough not adding much value to the comment, I concur that her channel is great to watch. She is so enthusiastic she would make even the grumpiest professor smile.
- fho 5y agoXyla channel is definitely worth a look. But she is somewhat rubbing me the wrong way (no pun intented) ... I am not sure if she had a channel before this one, but she basically appears out of nowhere with a perfect brand image: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B9XYJJY6IQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B9XYJJY6IQ From the get go she is connected into the wider content creation sphere. Appearing in videos from Veritasium, BPS.space, Dolphin Labs, probably some more. She is every nerds wet dream ... smart, creative and good looking with a overly happy attitude. I don't want to talk bad about her ... It's just too perfect for me not to be somewhat suspicious.
