I built this as a potential model for a book, but as the book has not materialised I decided to publish it instead! It searches for a liferaft containing the beacon using the IR sensor mounted under the cockpit. It just shows you that a single set can give you a lot of flexibility. I made building instructions for this model available as a RescueChopper. There is a mistake in the building instruction PDF at step Two parts are missing to hold the EV3 onto the Chopper body.

Could you fix that? Mark Aug 23, RVR Nov 22, The rear rotors, on the tail, they do not turn with the shaft with the gear system proposed in the building instructions.
I designed my own to make the rear rotor rotate. The Home Edition comes with 4. Other than those two things, the model is great! Very realistic model and ingenious gear systems. Notify lego mindstorms ev3 building instructions of follow-up comments by email.

If flying is true then get the distance reading from the IR sensor and use that to compute the delay between beeps.
To use this model all you need to do is: Download and run the program on the EV3. Press the touch sensor to start the rotors. As the chopper gets closer to the IR beacon the beeps will get progressively quicker. Connect the cables as follows: Ultrasonic sensor Port 4: Hi there, Just wondering does it actually fly From Tim.
