Coaxial Configuration Patent
Nordic Unmanned holds the patent for coaxial configuration on a drone. A coaxial configuration is when you have two motors on the same axis, that are rotating in opposite directions. Any drone that has this configuration on any number of arms is covered by the Nordic Unmanned Patent.
Why Coax
The Coax is a brilliant invention because it means that you can make a significantly higher lift drone, with a much smaller footprint. In addition to that, there are multiple safety features, that are very significant to regulations and how you can get flight permits. Especially in urban areas.
Regulations and flight permits using Coax
The coaxial propulsion configuration of drone motors is a way to increase the reliability of the propulsion of the drone. In case of motor failure, the drone will remain in the air. This significantly reduces ground risk, which is an important factor from a regulations perspective.
When providing the configuration reliability analysis to meet one of the operational safety objectives, having coaxial propulsion configuration motors will decrease risk and increase your chances of getting the right approvals.
