About The Chaser
Looking for an entertaining way to launch small propellers into the air? This device is for you!
It features a recessed On/Off Switch on the front to avoid accidentally turning it on or off. It has two power indicator LEDs next to the switch to show when the device is powered (red) and when the motor is armed (blue).
On the back, it has a USB-C port to recharge, along with two LEDs to indicate when it is charging and when it is fully charged.
It has a cap for protecting the motor when not in use. The cap can be placed on in either direction.

The Universal Vertical Propeller Style
This is the original propeller. Universal by design. Easy to use.
This propeller style works both ways, meaning it has no top or bottom.
I originally started this project because I wanted to play around more with brushless motors.
My first thought was to make a small flying device that you could throw up in the air and then under its own power it would fly high for a while (not remote control) and maybe have a camera on it to take a picture and then come back down.
I didn't like the way it was going with that idea and then the project morphed into what you see here. Instead of making the whole thing fly, I thought it would be just as fun to make only the propeller fly.
