    Speed and Efficiency When it comes to drones, no two flights are the same. From variable wind speeds and air density to propeller count and battery output, each time you head out to the flight field, get ready to experience a new snowflake. Depending on the type of flying you’re planning on doing and the type of speeds you’re looking to achieve, there needs to be some consideration into the gear your drone will be running. A racing drone needs different props than a videography drone. Heavy drones

    edge and then downward as it passes over the wing. This push down on the wing is countered with an equal upward thrust, creating lift.) What is the angle of attack? (How steeply the wing is tilted toward the incoming air.) Why is the pitch of the propeller different in the middle than the outer edge? (Velocity and pitch both affect lift. Since the outer tip is going quite fast relative to the air, it does not need a steep pitch in order to generate a good amount of lift. The parts nearer the center

    Resistance and Propulsion Final 1. a) There are two main reasons that ships use a foil shaped rudder as opposed to a flat, plate type rudder, and they are both related to each other. First, a foil shaped rudder creates a much greater “lifting” force at smaller angles of attack compared to a flat plate. Second, a foil shaped rudder achieves a higher angle of attack before the rudder “stalls”. The greater lifting, or in this case turning force induced by a foil shaped rudder at smaller angles
