The thing is I can't get a fix on gears. I have planned for 1.2mtr wingspan. I am trying to go for 5hz frequency with a 3500kV motor. I am thinking to use a readuction gear ration of 24:1. Is it correct ?? Design is based on kestrel orni

Hai annant, Gear mechanism is the most difficult and complex part in an orni...
Hiw many stages of reduction are you planning to... And to achive 5Hz frequency you may be needing 2 stage reduction...
