jetson one

[ujjwal123]

can i know why jetson one octacopter have it's rear propeller higher than the front propeller i have the idea that due to a person sitting in it it's center of gravity goes to rear so to reduce load on rear motor they dessigned it like that but can someone provide more solid explanation for this with maths .

I don't know but I imagine it is simply to stop you hitting the rear props on the ground when you come into land, and do a flare to reduce forward speed. You can always see the front props so are unlikely to hit the ground with them. (Flare - tilt rearwards)
