SpaceX inspired edf rocket part 1: deployable landing gear and thrust vector control

Описание: This is part 1 of my SpaceX inspired edf rocket project where I design, 3D-print, build and assemble the retractable landing gear and thrust vector control unit.

Part 2, which includes the maiden flight can be found here:    • SpaceX inspired edf rocket part 2: Final a...  

For those of you who say an edf is not a rocket, you're right it's technically a single copter design in the shape of a (SpaceX) rocket. An edf really is the easiest and cheapest way to control the thrust to maintain a stable hover.
I'm referring to "Spacex inspired" because i did use some general proportions from the falcon 9 rocket but had to make a lot of adjustments to turn it into a fully capable working rocket that's capable of hovering.
In the next video I'll assemble the rest of the rocket, install the flight computer and edf, and (hopefully) do an initial test flight. So subscribe if you wanna see more of this stuff ;-)
