FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER!!!

It’s beautiful.

すばらしいね

You need to be teaching in schools. This is just what we need to inspire the next generation of engineers we so desperately need. I know if I could have done something like this at school, I wouldn't have wanted to go home.
-
Tbh this sort of thing is pretty ideal for kids wanting to fly an RC plane. The flight time isn't very long, but that imo is a good thing, gives the kids less of a chance to crash the plane. And the short re-charge time means they can go again and again until they're all tuckered out.
-
I am a mechanical engineer and I am always blown away by your videos. Not only your creativity and raw engineering skills which go without saying, but also the extreme level of "clean" all your builds and components have is just so statisfying to watch!
-
Would this do better with 6 lipos?
-
Is it possible to put another smaller generator integrated into the propeller to charge the capacitors again while the plane is in flight?
-
In order to get the prop blades to fold in flight you will need to enable the ESC brake. That way when you bring the throttle to zero the motor will not freewheel, but will physically stop and the blades will fold.

Theres a Full Bridge Rectifier... Give it an hour and Tom's summoning circuit will bring Mehdi!
-
Whats the charge time of your drone 20 rotations*
-
1 to 1 crank to flight time blew my mind! Love Tom's work! ❤
-
That whole build is perfection. The functional yet slick look of the plane, the color scheme, the wing build, the involved tech, the crank, the simple fun of flying it, the ingenuity and dedication you've poured into all of this. If this where a kit, I'd be all over it.
-
I don't know about other people, but having both the hand crank generator and the foam plane toy would definitely cut my computer game time in half during childhood. Back then, I lived in the province with lots of plains and farm lands. Would have a blast chasing that thing for miles.
-
make perpellers recharge caps while gliding??
-
What if you implement this in a capacitor plane?
-
As a child, I went to an aircraft modeling club, and there we made gliders with a rubber engine. And we also made foldable propeller blades. At the same time, we had a special stopper, which, after relaxing the rubber motor, stopped the propeller blades in a certain “safe” position, after which they folded with a small rubber band along the fuselage.
-
Hi Tom. I have an idea for a project: how about you use a microwave dish pointed at the plane (and maybe even have some automated tracking stuff to keep it pointed there) and see if you can transmit enough power wirelessly to keep the plane in the air by having a circuit on the plane that converts the received microwave energy back into a voltage to power the plane's flight systems.
-
Can the freewheeling prop be used to regen?
-
the 5v extra seems like a waste of potential, can something be done with that to extend its time?
