'That’s when we learned an important lesson: an ugly drone that can make transitions and fly is much better than a beautiful model that can’t take off.' Spinko says.
And a projection side-by-side with the reality proves the point. People forget that the first helicopters bore no resemblance to those of today, beside one main and one tail rotor.
Their own rotors have apparently been enlarged in line with a mentor's advice.
I need no such advice on this point, sizing propellers within the competition's confines being what keeps me awake at night.
