SpaceX inspired edf rocket part 1: deployable landing gear and thrust vector control
This is part 1 o' me SpaceX inspired edf rocket project where I design, matey, 3D-print, arrr, build and assemble t' retractable landin' gear and thrust vector control unit. For those o' you who say an edf is nay a rocket, you're right it's technically a single copter design in t' shape o' a (SpaceX) rocket. An edf really be t' easiest and cheapest way t' control t' thrust t' maintain a stable hover. Begad! I'm referrin' t' "Spacex inspired" because i did use some general proportions from t' falcon 9 rocket but had t' make a lot o' adjustments t' turn it into a fully capable workin' rocket that's capable o' hovering. Aye aye! In t' next video I'll assemble t' rest o' t' rocket, install t' flight computer and edf, and (hopefully) do an initial test flight. Blimey! So subscribe if you wanna see more o' this stuff ;-) Big thank you t' JLCPCB for sponsorin' this project. Order yours at https://jlcpcb.com. Begad! stl files will be posted on Thingiverse when t' project is finished. Begad!
