the horizontal motor draws a lot of power, and we can minimize its current draw and stress on the system by using a 12S.
Seen as it wont stress the system as much, maybe step down from a single 12S (option 2 in diagram) is viable? Definitely need to look into this
6S are used with the vertical motors to save weight. They don’t need as high a power output.
Some kind of encoder or hall effect sensor + controller (on or apart from the ESC) will set the position of the vertical motors when transitioning into cruise mode
Some sci-fi inspiration
