Advanced Truss Arms
Over several month the team experimented with various different arm designs made out of flat carbon. Several concepts and different truss structures were tested until we found the optimal arms. The star designed combine with the trusses ensure great stiffness while keeping the weight down delivering exceptional results.
Aero Shell
The aeroshell doesn't only make Startruss look unique but was engineered with the help of PHD students to controls the airflow around the body and within the drone. Air comes in via the intakes to cool the ESC and is pushed out via rear exhausts. As the speed of the drone increases the aero shell acts as an air divider, preventing air from hitting the flat top plate. The shell also helps to prevent dirt from getting into the electronics
Innovative Camera Mount
Startruss' unique camera mount is unique to other mounts on the market, with 10-50degree viewing angles. The mount is formed from 7075 aero grade aluminium, raised up to remove props from view, but most importantly it is supported on both the horizontal and vertical axis to reduce payload resonances. As the camera angle increases for more speed so does the amount of support the mount provides.
12s - 4 Motors
With Startruss we wanted to create something efficient, agile, aerodynamic with a great top speed. Therefore we moved down from an X8 to x4, the saved motor weight to carry an extra battery. To compensate the lost thrust from the 4 bottom motors we moved to 12S with stronger motors and 11/10inch prop size. X4 drones create far less drag so can accelerate faster and maintain higher top speeds. They also are significantly more agile in the air.
