This project started five years ago in my tiny shed in Brunei. With the help of a few pilots, we were able to prove that the unit could be created from 3d printed parts, and the stepper motor could be used as a mag brake, parallel and series actuator. This allowed the design to be much smaller and achieve some design parameters we have not seen in other builds. These are:
Collective hold,
Force Trim/Force Feel,
Beep Trim (electric increase/decrease of the collective)
and autopilot input (still very much a work in progress)
This video is the first of 3 in the series.
Video 2: cyclic build
Video 3: wiring and programming.
