Hi
I am looking to build a radio controlled F35b for an indoor event that needs to take off vertically and be able to hover.
I am looking at a hollow depron model with 2 90mm ducted fans, one behind cockpit and one where exhaust exits both pointing down, then 2 30mm ducted fans hidden in the wingtips to control roll.
My theory is the 2 90mm ducted fans would provide enough thrust to keep it airborne and differential thrust between the 2 will give some forward backwards movement, the 30mm ducted fans will provide a small amount of thrust but mainly roll/stability.
I am guessing yaw wouldn't work in a traditional sense due to different powered motors, I was thinking of vanes under 30mm ducted fans to direct thrust and create yaw.
it doesn't need to transition into proper forward flight.
I have experience with rc hell's and have a DJI Phantom. but don't know a lot about the gubbins inside them. can the above be achieved?
Would appreciate any thoughts
Cheers
Neil
