Motors & Drives Information

Motorcycle street bikes are blast and you feel as if you have all the power in the world right at your wrist, give it a little juice and Seee Ya! The responsiveness and speed indeed make you feel like you are one with the gods. So with all this adrenaline rush and power, why not take it all to much higher level? How so you ask? Well, why not make a motorcycle race bike, which can fly.

With expandable blow up wings and a propeller adapter and as we do this lets us consider how we will maneuver the aircraft/motorcycle once airborne and some of the aerodynamic and flight control characteristics we must consider. First, race bikes already have a very good center of gravity and as the rear wheel drives it pushes the bike forward on the ground, so we would want the propeller in the rear also and we would want to make sure it was solidly attached to the swing arm holding the rear wheel hub.

We would put the chain to spin the propeller and the system coming off that swing arm and thus this would give us a solid centerline thrust to help with stability once airborne. This also makes sense because this is how the motorcycle is currently set up and we simply are adding another feature; one that allows us to fly!
