I have a few 'disassembled' nanocopters and I wondered if I could power a plane just using the tail rotor. This is the second attempt in this project. It is probably a bit heavy for the motor but it does have an airfoil wing to improve the lift. A little more flight time in a larger space. If you have a question it is probably worth reading this video description first because the answer may already be here. To help you find my videos I made two search guides https://youtu.be/ceBSOoOHcgw or https://youtu.be/Zj4UgwkwYRk or checkout my playlists page https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists?flow=grid&view=1 This plane is based on the design by ProjectFlightDesign Delta Scratch Build Video https://youtu.be/lpjzNjn7ynw Main components - Nanocopter Tail Rotor assembly Polystyrene Pizza Trays Supercapacitor Main Tools - Hot Glue Gun Sharp knife Soldering iron Filmed using HTC One Mini mobile phone Edited using Serif MoviePlus Starter Edition The supercapacitors I used came from Maplin Electronics http://www.maplin.co.uk/c/components/capacitors/super-capacitors In this video I use the charger pack from a PowerUp kit but here is my helpfile on making a charger unit for my supercapacitors https://youtu.be/tdOc62ZOSUI?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1wNvirrwAn69eo_pM0tdEM This series is grouped together in this playlist Nanocopter Tail Rotor Styrofoam Plane https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1qX6WMnyBuRAylld6ws2Ie I will add this new video to my Aircraft playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB0nZItxE_78EJP0F99Ghaki and my Supercapacitor Planes playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA5a2xPRSrB1wNvirrwAn69eo_pM0tdEM I have thousands of videos on YouTube covering a wide range of subjects. To find them follow my search guides https://youtu.be/ceBSOoOHcgw or https://youtu.be/Zj4UgwkwYRk or see my playlists page https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan/playlists?flow=grid&view=1 Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap. https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
