B: An Ambitious Remote Controlled Car Cum Helicopter Exceeds Pledged Amount On Kickstarter

June 22nd - via: crazyengineers.com
Projects on Kickstarter tend to have outlandish names like Stompy, Velomobile and RoboRoach, but when a PhD scholar Witold Mielniczek decided to name with a single alphabet ‘B’, one could surely predict that this project was going to rise above the rest. In its prototype stage B, is now a fully functioning small remote controlled hybrid car-helicopter that has the ability to travel across tough terrain and if situation demands set flight almost instantly. The main body is made out of polycarbonate that houses Ackermann steering mechanism with servo and the 11.1 V 2200mAh Li-Po battery. The detachable driving rings contain the 7 inch propellers that can help the car fly. Continuing with the tradition of attaching cameras with mini drones B has an onboard camera capable of recording videos at 720p that can be stored with help of microSD cards. (Read More)
