JetQuad: Jet VTOL Drone - First Stable Hover FusionFlight 2019-10-06 | This is the second test performed to the AB5 JetQuad on 10/5/2019. The test features smooth take-off/landing and improved position/altitude control. The AB5 JetQuad is a VTOL drone powered by four microturbines capable of high payload capacity and cruise velocity.
AB6 JetQuad Jet-Drone Test Flight 10-9-2024 FusionFlight 2024-10-09 | As they say: "One step forward, two steps back". Roughly 6-months ago we upgraded our jet-engines on the JetQuad for increased power and reliability. Unfortunately, the vehicle is not entirely agnostic to the engines, so stability has been impacted as seen in the latest test video. Back to tuning! #jet #drone #uav #uas #flight #test #stability #tuning #callibration
ARC Micro Turbine Generator Set-up and Operation FusionFlight 2024-09-10 | The latest generation of the ARC turbogenerator comes packed with several critical updates. Most importantly, the new firmware allows the ARC to sense when the turbine has reached idle state, after which it is gradually throttled-up until a pre-programmed voltage is reached (user need only turn the unit on). The ARC will then maintain this voltage under varying loads by using a built controller. Check out the video below for an overview of how-to set-up and operate this latest model.#turbo #generator #genset #turbine #jet #engine #diesel #power #equipment #turbomachinery #electronics
450N Micro Turbine Start: zero to Idle in 10sec! FusionFlight 2024-06-20 | In this video, we idle test the latest generation 450N micro jet engine. Advanced new engine design allows start-up in 10sec, well below the 30second industry standard. Every year this technology gets better and better.
JetQuad Static Idle Test with Thrust Vectoring FusionFlight 2024-02-07 | A typical engine test for the JetQuad - set your volume setting to high!We ignite all engines to idle and then wiggle the thrust vectors to make sure there’s smooth motion under heat load.The flames during start up look sweet, but they indicate a poor start - engine is dumping too much fuel during ignition.A bit more fine tuning, otherwise this beast is ready for the air!For more info on the JetQuad:Www.FusionFlight.com/jetquad#jet #drone #test #thrust #vectoring #uas #uav #engineering
AB6 JetQuad Same-spot Take-off and Landing FusionFlight 2023-06-17 | In this video, we test the position and velocity control of the JetQuad by attempting to take-off and land at the same spot. In the future we can upgrade with an infrared beacon for precision Landing.
Jet-Powered Flying DeLorean First Flight! FusionFlight 2023-04-09 | Finally! A solid take-off of our jet-powered DeLorean (enabled by the JetQuad platform). Unfortunately, the DeLorean seems to enjoy flying in reverse so had to bring it down for an emergency landing - otherwise it is fine, some more tuning, and it will be perfect next time.
ARC Micro Turbogenerator Field Set-up & Run FusionFlight 2023-02-19 | In this video, we show how to set-up and run the ARC generator anywhere you want. It can be placed on any surface and hooked up to a fuel tank. Notice that the ARC remains solid and smooth throughout the operation.
ARC Diesel Micro Generator - Bluetooth App 100% Throttle Run FusionFlight 2022-10-30 | In this test, we show how to use the bluetooth app on an apple or android phone to control the ARC Generator. We run the generator to 100% throttle to demonstrate the quick spool-up capability so make sure to set you volume on loud!
JetQuad Test Flight: Forward Translation & Heading Changes FusionFlight 2022-09-11 | After a summer full of hardware and software updates we are finally back at the test fields. We expected some decrease in stability since we had a fairly major overhaul. Still, we were able to re-qualify forward and backward translation as well as heading changes - and yaw control looks very promising!
ARC Portable Generator: Setup & Operation FusionFlight 2022-07-11 | In this video, we explain in detail how to setup and run the ARC turbine generator. The video contains footage of the generator running at 50% throttle so make sure your volume levels are set to high!
JetQuad Test Flight Filmed by Quadcopter FusionFlight 2022-04-11 | In this video, we follow the JetQuad on a typical test flight from the eyes of a quadcopter hovering nearby. Don't fly the quadcopter too close thought! Or else it gets sucked right into the downwash.Music by:tunetank.com/t/6oqu/5175-summer-lounge-house
JetQuad Raw Un-Edited Test Flight + Smooth Forward Transition! FusionFlight 2022-02-20 | In this un-edited raw video, we show a typical JetQuad run from start to finish. We begin with engine ignition and move on to throttle-up, flight test, landing, and engine shut-down. During this test the winds were blowing at 17mph hence the several auto roll adjustments. Also, pay attention to the forward and backward flight transitions which are smooth with great improvements in the latest firmware.
AB6 JetQuad Cold Weather Thrust Vectoring Ground Test FusionFlight 2022-02-05 | In this short video, we test how well the thrust vectoring system works in cold weather.
AB6 JetQuad Forward Flight Test + Onboard Cam View! FusionFlight 2021-11-15 | AB6 JetQuad test performed on 11-14-2021. The test features some forward and backward flight profiles as well as footage from an onboard camera, must watch with full volume!
AB6 JetQuad Low Altitude Hover Test 11/13/2021 FusionFlight 2021-11-14 | In this video we tested the stability of the system in low altitude flying and ground effects.
FusionFlight JetQuad VTOL UAS Hands-On Introduction FusionFlight 2020-10-24 | In this video, we show "hands-on" how the AB6 JetQuad works and go over some of the most notable features which make the JetQuad superior in performance to all other drones out there. We also share some of the flight footage collected over the past year.
JetQuad: Jet VTOL Drone - Position Hold Test Flight FusionFlight 2019-10-31 | Video from the latest test #3 of the AB5 JetQuad VTOL Drone. The drone was in the air for a full 1 minute and 10-seconds during windy conditions, and showed its automatic ability to direct its nose into the direction of the wind.
JetQuad: Jet VTOL Drone - First Successful Lift-Off FusionFlight 2019-08-19 | First successful flight video of the AB5 JetQuad drone. The JetQuad is a drone powered by four microturbines, fueled by Diesel, and capable of vertical take-off and landing from virtually any terrain. The drone is equipped with advanced Thrust-Vectoring Systems that allow smooth attitude control and transition between VTOL and Horizontal flight modes.
