Add Quadtailsitter model based on the swan K1 #982
Conversation
Remove control surfaces and adjust motor positions F Adjust cg and baselink position Remove aoa offset Add cma Move back aerodynamics model F F
- Update the inertia to a valid rectangular cuboid. - Move model so that base link is in the center just behind the CG. - Move rotors so they match the visualization. Signed-off-by: Julian Oes <julian@oes.ch>
This works a lot better! The only adjustments from the default plane model, for now, are the foward and upword directions, and the area. And obviously the control surfaces are not copied over. Signed-off-by: Julian Oes <julian@oes.ch>

We got docs for this, and a frame build? |
@hamishwillee I will add the docs once the main is merged, but no frame builds since it never flew on real hardware |
Great thanks. I wonder if we should/could have some sort of automated build of the frames info for simulator in the same way as we do for "real" airframes? |
@hamishwillee That would be nice. Eould you be able to shed some light on how it is done for real airframes? |
@Jaeyoung-Lim Yes. So @bkueng is the expert. |
Problem Description
This PR adds a Quadtailsitters VTOL based on the HEQ Swan K1
These VTOLs have no control surfaces were not available and therefore use the differential thrust to control the vehicle.
Testing
The model can be tested using the PR: PX4/PX4-Autopilot#20558
Thanks Holybro for providing the 3D model for the vehicle! and @julianoes making it flyable!
