Overview
This propeller is the T-Motor VZ22x7.4 VTOL propeller (VZ Series) designed for VTOL applications, including VTOL fixed-wing UAVs in multicopter mode for medium VTOL agriculture platforms. The VZ Series focuses on high strength, high stiffness, and lightweight design to improve thrust response and controllability in complex VTOL operating conditions.
Key Features
- High strength: Withstands centrifugal loads and maneuver-induced alternating loads at high RPM to help prevent structural failure.
- High stiffness: Helps maintain blade-tip clearance in compact layouts, suppresses aeroelastic deformation, and helps prevent flutter.
- Lightweight design: Reduces moment of inertia for rapid thrust response and higher attitude control bandwidth for the flight control system.
- VTOL aerodynamic design: Supports VTOL vertical takeoff/landing thrust demands and reduced profile drag during cruise (when the propeller stops rotating).
- Bending & torsion resistant layup design: Optimized fiber orientation and ratio to maximize strength and stiffness.
- Prepreg compression molding (integrated forming): Product porosity below 1% for stable and reliable quality.
- PMI foam core: Lightweight, high-strength core material to increase stiffness while controlling total weight.
- Comparative improvements: 30% flexural strength and 20% torsional stiffness (from comparative testing versus G Series propellers).
- Blade root optimization: Optimized root thickness for structural redundancy while reducing loads on connecting bolts.
- Airfoil / blade shaping: Dedicated high lift-to-drag ratio airfoil for VTOL, low-drag cruise blade shape, and specialized blade tip design.
