Re: For those who are skeptical about propellers - Team 2526

Zrop & others, any updates? Do you guys have any automation built-in, i.e. automated yaw functions to keep you going straight, etc?

I can see that you guys are putting much effort into the design of the props, and are experimenting to get the maximum bang out of the props. This is the process that FIRST loves to see. I remember seeing a team from Florida doing a prop design -- anyone remember who they are? Assuming good safety practices, I definitely look forward to seeing this in person! (Even if bumper impact forces wreak havoc on a blade who's tip is spinning over 200mph )
