Heavy Lift Hybrid Drone Control - Electric and Gas Powered Drone
-
Hello,
I'm considering building a heavy lift drone for a competition. The drone design would be similar to the link below.
SKYF operating principle
SKYF is an unmanned aerial carrier platform for vertical take-off and landing
YouTube (www.youtube.com)
There would be 2 main rotors powered by a single gas engine, and 4 smaller rotors, each with its own electric motor in the corners. I'd imagine that the control system would be a bit complex since the 2 systems (gas and electric) need to work together and there needs to be feedback in regard to the 2 main rotors (some kind of tach could be used).
Does Modal AI have a flight controller that could control such a system? If not, is there anything you'd recommend?
Regards,
Sam
