O.C. Flyer Family

Open-source ultralight eVTOL aircraft. Three single-occupant vehicles sharing a common cockpit pod, motor module, and 4130 pilot cage:

  • OCFlyer-Lite — tandem-wing tilt-body, sit-supine, amphibious. Long-range touring + sport.
  • OCRacer — pure VTOL multirotor, three tiers (Hobby / Prosumer / Mod). Closed-course racing + short-range hopping.
  • OCRotator — research / technology demonstrator. Tests advanced architectures before they hit production.

Built parametrically in Blender via the BlenderForge plugin with a 5-tool aerospace extension included in this repo.

Status

Design scaffolded. Awaiting first prototype build. See docs/specs/00-INDEX.md for the family overview.

Quick paths

License

Hardware designs + documentation: CERN Open Hardware Licence v2 — Strongly Reciprocal (CERN-OHL-S-2.0). You are free to study, modify, build, and redistribute, with strong reciprocity (improvements flow back under the same license).

Python tool code in blender/tools/ is dual-licensed CERN-OHL-S-2.0 OR MIT at your option, so it can be vendored into MIT-licensed Blender plugins.

Mission

Make manned ultralight eVTOL flight available to the maker-space level builder. Targets FAR Part 103 compliance (no pilot certification required) for the production variants. Designed in the open, built in the open, flown in the open.

About
