Not going to answer anything not obvious from the video (sorry), but it's actually twelve independent motors -- the six that catch your eye in that opening shot

Not going to answer anything not obvious from the video (sorry), but it's actually twelve independent motors -- the six that catch your eye in that opening shot are the front six, you can just see another six behind them.
- Ancapistani 4y agoI wouldn’t expect you to go into extreme detail based on a random, pseudo-anonymous poster on a forum! :) My point being that if the TWR is > ~1.5 - and I’m quite sure it is, or VTOL would be very difficult - then you can “safely” lose a prop and still be able to get back to the ground.
- addaon 4y agoYep. And the more independent rotors you have, the less excess thrust you need to have good performance in a single failure; but the more you have to consider multiple failures.
