LT-MC305 Dual Rotor Aerospace
Labtronic offers the Aero-vehicle Trainer, a benchtop educational unit designed to introduce trainees to fundamental control and aerospace concepts. The trainer allows operators to safely control the dynamic response of the system, powered by two rotors. It can simulate various aeronautical systems, including half-quadrotor, 1-DOF, and 2-DOF helicopters. The unit features interchangeable propellers, user-adjustable thrust vectors, and the ability to lock axes independently, providing a versatile platform for hands-on learning. This trainer offers practical experience in aerospace control applications, making it ideal for exploring real-world flight dynamics and control challenges.
