Everything you Need to Know About the TOROIDAL PROPELLER

In this video, I will summarise an article about MIT's toroidal prop design. You'll learn how the design supposedly works and its potential applications in drone technology. I will also share what has been tested in the FPV community and provide you with my final thoughts. Get ready to dive deep into the world of toroidal propellers!

@WillItMod has now flown my third generation and noted better and tighter flight behaviour which I'm very happy to note. Guess we'll see how we get on with more tests as I get more sizes out there. I'm excited to see what we get more people on SLA printing them, hopefully getting even better flight performance with a more ideal 3D printing method. Considering injection moulding doesn't seem to be an option, I'm thinking home SLA printing might end up being the most common way these toroidals get into the hands of the FPV community. It'll end up being a question of which resin or mixture of resins work the best.

The word 'subjective' springs to mind. Overview of other testers.

They provided no data and no analysis proving it is quieter or more efficient in any way, and they specifically mute the clips where it's flying, and boost the audio of the clips of the normal prop flying. I have a feeling like if the design was legitimately beneficial they would show that it is.
The 'paper' is 2 pages long and mostly fluff about how drones are being used 'more and more.'

And the end you ask what would happen if you tuned a motor to work with the toroidal prop. Did you get the answer to that question?
