i wonder what kinda speed you could get if you mounted a RC gas motor, and used a servo to control the throttle....

I've been looking at all of these mini-hover-bots in the galleries. They are awesome!! I thinking of building one with my team as a small project to train new members.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to designing/building these hoverbots.

I've considered physically mounting the drive motor on a servo, so that the motor itself pivots and provides direct thrust in certain directions, as opposed to the servo-actuated flaps. Will this work?

I would love some feedback.

Thanks
