English: A quadrotor yaws in the anticlockwise direction by applying more thrust to the two clockwise rotors than the two anticlockwise rotors. A conservation of angular momentum causes the quadrotor to rotate as desired. In this diagram, the thickness of the arrows indicate the relative amount of thrust applied.
A quadcopter, also called quadrocopter, or quadrotor [1] is a type of helicopter or multicopter that has four rotors. [ 2 ] Although quadrotor helicopters and convertiplanes have long been flown experimentally, the configuration remained a curiosity until the arrival of the modern unmanned aerial vehicle or drone.
One rotor. Powered rotors require compensation for the torque reaction causing yaw, except in the case of tipjet drive. One rotor rotorcraft are typically called monocopters. Two rotors. These typically rotate in opposite directions cancelling the torque reaction so that no tail rotor or other yaw stabiliser is needed. These rotors can be laid ...
Rotors to the left and right are in a transverse configuration while those in the front and to the rear are in a tandem configuration. An advantage of quad rotors on small aircraft such as drones is the opportunity for mechanical simplicity. A quadcopter using electric motors and fixed-pitch rotors has only four moving parts.
A coaxial-rotor aircraft is an aircraft whose rotors are mounted one above the other on concentric shafts, with the same axis of rotation, but turning in opposite directions (contra-rotating). This rotor configuration is a feature of helicopters produced by the Russian Kamov helicopter design bureau .
Joseph Edward Corcoran, 49, is set to be executed for the July 26, 1997 murders of his brother, sister's fiancé and two of their friends in Indiana.
Indexes closed lower on Thursday after wholesale inflation data was slightly hotter than expected. Producer prices rose 0.4% in November, higher than consensus estimates of 0.2%.
