  • could you auto with that thing? If the engine fails? Looks risky:)

  • All those rubber bands heading back to the tail would make me nervous

    

  • overall nice helicopter. what are some of the specs on it?

  • waste of motorbike

  • don't jump please

    

  • how much is it 2 make

  • An excellent job. I would like to know the engine that

  • An excellent job. I would like to know the engine that

  • Talk about a waste of time and money...

  • I just couldnt trust that belt driven tail rotor, no redundancy. But very cool anyway!

  • @whiteblazejunky

    as far as I can see, there are dubble pulleys and belts at each transfer station so that's the redundancy !!

    Very clever IMHO !!

    Much less strain and slippage chance with short belts,this guy is knowing what he's doing !!

    I agree with you, "very cool" !!

  • If this is so bloody well built lets see this man fly it !!! I could hurl my flymo further than this thing could fly, Maybe it should be renamed the 'Birmybug@ lol lol

  • I think that "hurl your flymo" is about all you can do, besides giving useless comment because building one is probably far beyond your capability,using your comment as a reference.

  • @leemnav lol agreed!

  • well done Ben !!!!

    surpisingly we see very few homebuilt helicopters despite the fact that the internet seems loaded with "experts" !!

    Cleverly done to use belts for the tail rotor,fully adjustable,redundancy and probably more failsafe than a shaft.

    Nice work,good thinking,good craftmanship !!

  • This must be a joke !!!!!! this guy loves his pulleys he not only has them on his contraption the so called helicopter he uses them on his shed door too lol lol, please tell me that this machine has not flown, as the diameter of the rotor looks to be very small, and to be honest the whole thing looks a no goer !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Does the rotor dia. "looks" very small to you or do you know it is (too) small?

    The rotor dia. is in function of the discloading and since you obviously have no clue of how much the TOW is,your comment must be based on...thumbsucking.

    The whole thing "looks" a no goer-the dia. of the rotor "looks" small,if "looks" are so important to you than maybe you'd better watch fashion video's !!

  • very cool. Lots off hard work put into her i bet. Are you flying it know? would love to see that. Your belt drive reminds me of the Vortec heli plans i have. It is belt drive as well. Maybe someday i,ll have time to build one. It would be great to hear back from you. Happy flying from Canada

  • Loos awsome. I would change the design of the tail rotor power. Those belts man, If they Jump the pullies MAN bad news

  • Hi Peter here, a very interesting machine, is that a motorcycle engine neatly fixed in there, the rotor diameter dosnt look that big,and has it got cyclic and collective pitch control
