Many tricopter designs use a servo to angle the rear propeller to rotate the aircraft clockwise / counter-clockwise, and have an issue with asymmetry (only two propellers can counter-rotate while the third causes a bit of rotation). A 6-rotor tricopter solves the symmetry issue, but is more expensive as it requires three additional motors and ESCs. 18 18 19 19 **The Mechanics** ... ... @@ -59,13 +59,13 @@ 59 59 |[[image:VT45-TBP.png]]|VTail 400-500 Top Body Plate|(% style="text-align:center" %)1|VT45-TBP|RB-Lei-16 60 60 |[[image:VT5-TFA.png]]|VTail 500 Top Front Arm|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-TFA|RB-Lei-17 61 61 |[[image:VT5-BFA.png]]|VTail 500 Bottom Front Arm|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-BFA|RB-Lei-18 62 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Arm Support|(% style="text-align:center" %)6|VT5-AS|RB-Lei-1963 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Landing|(% style="text-align:center" %)6|VT5-LD|RB-Lei-2064 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Rear Arm|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-RA|RB-Lei-2165 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Rear V Support|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-RVS|RB-Lei-2266 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Top Tail Motor Mount|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-TTMM|RB-Lei-2367 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Bottom Tail Motor Mount|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-BTMM|RB-Lei-2468 -|[[image:VT 45-TBS.png]]|VTail 500 Tail Brace|(% style="text-align:center" %)1|VT5-TB|RB-Lei-2561 +|[[image:VT5-AS.png]]|VTail 500 Arm Support|(% style="text-align:center" %)6|VT5-AS|RB-Lei-19 62 +|[[image:VT5-LD.png]]|VTail 500 Landing|(% style="text-align:center" %)6|VT5-LD|RB-Lei-20 63 +|[[image:VT5-RA.png]]|VTail 500 Rear Arm|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-RA|RB-Lei-21 64 +|[[image:VT5-RVS.png]]|VTail 500 Rear V Support|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-RVS|RB-Lei-22 65 +|[[image:VT5-TTMM.png]]|VTail 500 Top Tail Motor Mount|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-TTMM|RB-Lei-23 66 +|[[image:VT5-BTMM.png]]|VTail 500 Bottom Tail Motor Mount|(% style="text-align:center" %)2|VT5-BTMM|RB-Lei-24 67 +|[[image:VT5-TB.png]]|VTail 500 Tail Brace|(% style="text-align:center" %)1|VT5-TB|RB-Lei-25 69 69 |(% colspan="5" %)**Hardware Bag** 70 70 |[[image:[email protected]]]|Steel Lock Nuts - Black - 1/4" x 4-40|(% style="text-align:center" %)14|SLN-01|RB-Tex-12 71 71 |[[image:[email protected]]]|Steel Socket Head Screw - Black - 3/8" x 4-40|(% style="text-align:center" %)14|SHS-02|RB-Tex-21
