When the brake pads close against the spinning rotor, this creates a certain level of friction. The friction converts kinetic energy that has been building up in your motorcycle, transforming it from ...

Since the rotors are easily fabricated via 3D printing they should be easy to adapt to a number of different drones. If you want to explore some more interesting drones, checkout this one that can ...

Eddy current brakes develop torque by the direct magnetic linking of the rotor to the stator. A magnetic field induces a voltage in moving objects and the induced voltage causes an eddy current to ...
