I need some help about “drone aerodynamics” …the direction of rotor airflow
If you’re looking for the propeller direction for a multirotor, you need to take a look at the flight controller and your drone’s configuration.
If you’re looking for the air flow for a propeller, you can take a look information relating to air flow around a propeller on an airplane.
The air flow around the frame requires experimentation / fluid dynamics simulation.
I need information about the air flow around a propeller of a drone (which is horizontal) not that of an airplane (which is vertical).
I would like to determine the spots with much air flow and if these changes at different stage of flight…take off…flying right/left…forward/backward
This is the best I can find though it is not conclusive

The fact that the propeller is vertical or horizontal should have almost no effect on the air flow. The principles of operation are almost identical since, when determining the air flow, the air is not affected by gravity.
If you are not comfortable using an airplane propeller, perhaps that of a helicopter? The blades however are quite different.
I am designing and building a modification for a drone…I finished designing and assembling the electronic component (two modules)…part of the mechanical component (still waiting one part coming from china)…my problem is it’s place on the drone and it’s effect on its aerodynamics
