Mosquito Air at AirVenture 2007 startup

[aporeg]

lol



[rolficus]

he left the hand break on

[themainproblem]

It looked like there was a lot of vibration on the tail rotor. Could it be out of balance?

[hatasato01]

FUCK

[Eduardo79294]

fraquinho

[Dongskie2]

It sounds like my Hirobo Sceadu lol

[juz70]

hmmmmm

[fernando67sm]

i make it self

[Ramoncantillana]

Y, Vuela o no? Es caceo?

[sinfuldavy0]

Too much vibration in tail.

[PickleMDM]

A little trouble taking off?

[xismxist]

i said before i loaded video, that this crap wont lift

[SIGNALSTAT]

aint nothing in the world like a shaken chopper.

[Mathyu0179100]

haha, I wouldnt want to be within 50 feet of that thing when it spools up!

[jmeasterday]

I nickname thee.............wobble monster! 

[lector06t]

Fasten your seatbelt on a minipimer.

[hagoromo30]

飛べよ。バカたれ。糞動画貼るな

[Bigrockets101]

So other than shake and make a lot of noise does it do anything else?

[bodgaard]

Good thing that hunk of shit didn't get off the ground, that way it can rattle apart on the ground! Pilot probably said to himself, "Fuck this!"

[BehindBen]

With "startup" I thought you meant a startup company.. this video was kind of a waste.

[napeediklee]

the pilot is too fat!

[juliepollard]

Check out my other video(s) in this series - THIS one is titled "Startup" to give an idea of the entire flight process of the mosquito...I have posted several videos of this mosquito doing flight demonstrations.

[chanctonbury63]

Great, but does it fly??

[jimthemessiah]

fail why would you post this

[juliepollard]

Education and Entertainment

[2000jago]

@juliepollard I wasn't entertained or educated, just annoyed.

[segocarib]

@jimthemessiah Fail, why posting that kind of comment.

[meamatom]

[stalkingalizee]

It looks like it is made of PVC. lol

[19Truth53]

Observe the vibration at the end of the tail boom. This is eventually going to cause metal fatigue, and subsequent failure of the tail-boom/tail rotor system. These home-builts are death traps.

[paco40a]

parecia que se desarmaba la chingadera

[Camshaft400]

Jeez! That thing was shaken like a mexican space shuttle!! lol

[juliepollard]

Check out Innovator Technologies webpage. They sell it, as well as complete kits on Ebay - search for Mosquito Ultralight helicopter

[Xxsideshow22xX]

were do youbuy one of these

[magicmachine1]

stupid video!

[sibrent1]

i'll take two. one to fly, one to be buried in after dying in the first one.

[deuteriate]

How could the pilot not notice the tail rotor vibration? It's probably why he didn't take off.

[ShootBigBird]

Three words: Tail Boom Fatigue

[KDanagger]

That tail boom flex is a catastrophic failure waiting to happen. Looks like a problem with main rotor balance or blade tracking. Hope nobody ever tries to actually fly that thing.

[critian54]

nunca volo

[SlopeSkimmer]

I'd buy one if I had the money!

[sted123456789]

One day that tail rotor's going to say bye to the rest of the meccano set.

[eraser0815]

you ar right bad vibrations on the tail

[6mrviagra9]

Can you Show us how to do a Autorotation landing with your creation... :)

[toastmaster91]

(i think its too fat) :p

[Binarykode]

Bob saget - "Now that's what i call a shakey situation"

[heroineworshipper]

Not powerful enough to lift off. Looks like the tail boom is going to fall off.

[chidoyou]

cuanto cuesta uno de esos

[crookedtool]

Wow, I'm glad you didn't record the take-off, because that would have really spoiled the EXCITEMENT of the start-up.

[geeksquad2]

LOL

[johnnytheprick]

CROOKETTOOL,

lololololololololololololo

[sbflash311]

This is like the one Murdock kept in his footlockeer on "The A Team."

[paseo1997]

was that a one bladed tail rotor? You get better balance with 2 blades

[savageguy25]

are u kidding?.....it had 2 blades

[teamr0ach]

didn't u watch the beginning? its got a 2 bladed tail rotor?

[supersport396]

NO way i'd fly it with the oscilations in that tail boom

[kdc43]

Wow, it flew 0.001 inch straight up!

[speedstakerguy]

thats a lot

[rayven2012]

If they put a carrier bearing right where they brace the tail boom it would probably solve the excessive vibration

[rayven2012]

The tail boom looks like it's made of PVC pipe it's shaking so bad

[joseppi2219]

@rayven2012

I was thinking the same thing o about the Tail boom shaking like plastic1 Looks like a Future Catastrophic failure!

[1moreshoot]

Chissà se poi si è sollevato da terra ..........

[downIoder]

unbalanced tail rotor oops

[lefrancpascal]

j'aurais bien voulu voir un vol

[landrecce]

There's an awful lot of vibration coming off of that tail rotor... I'm a fan of this bird but I think his is broken!

[cutlercustomcyclefab]

move that tail roter truss closer to hub,or better yet add two more, ie girder it.. put a carrier bearing in the center of the drive shaft, to stop shaft flex [probable balance problem] or rename this video; MAY DAY!, MAY DAY!.... but what do I know about it....... M.I.T.

[heloaerobatic]

This thing is a 100 times better than the incredible helicopy Mini-500 helicoffin by Fetters Al Faris.

[thecracken9]

The simple fact that you ramain throttled up even after it shakes like a dog shitin razor blades tells me you have a death wish. Save yourself some time and put a gun to your head. Get off that piece of shit and leave the building to Hughs, Bell, to name a couple.

[meandmyevo]

tell the jerk in the orange shirt to get off and she'll fly...

"pilot" you say? hmm...

[specialmousenz]

So,,,, are they gunna build one that does what real helicopters do, or is flight just a secondary option - cause I could just go and start my lawnmower and sit on it if I wanted to get shaken to bits by unbalanced spinning parts!!!.

[dynamicz108]

they shoulda just bought a vibrator

[LucasDecimus]

wast of 2 minits

[thomas242007]

that really doesnt look very stable does it.

[wi11y1960]

Ugh I wouldnt want to be around that thing. Tail rotor is unbalanced. Watch the shaft vibrate, an accident waiting to happen.

[eldudeny]

I agree, something is out of balance. One would think the pilot would feel the vibration and abort take off.

[d3ejmz]

hmm... mosquito air... is that like, guitar air?

[RIPPERTON]

How long can it sit on the ground like that revvin it guts out ?

Does it fly

[bassux]

flys well

[smbkpdc]

How long do you need to learn to fly it?

How long can you stay in the air?

How far can you fly?

[conrad2468]

the website is.....innovatortech(dot)ca

[islandbushpilot]

simple looking machine ,but the shaking of the tail rotor and the boom MMMMmmm not sure about that.like to see it fly after the tail components have been balanced out

[pilotoheli]

Really nice piece of engineering. For being this simple, maybe there were e really good engineers behind it.

It makes me feel like aviation is more affordable than we imagine. It's a shame that here in Brazil this costs the same as a sport car and that 2 cycle engines are prohibited here even for ultralights.

Nice machine. I dream of learning to fly helicopters one day.

[hawker445]

o i didn't see this last year, i never went to the other experemental field

[pietabosch]

Shake rattle and roll?

Do I detect an impending tailboom failure here? See how the tailboom whips around the anchor point. Blade balance?

Bet he saw it too on the video and has fixed it now.

That is what videos are great for!

[macrumpton]

The suspense, the drama. I want one now!

[rodstartube]

chicken

[gamr4life]

Interesting . . .but it would be nice to see it fly intead of just start the engine and sit on the ground. I assume it is designed to fly . . .

[True0Faith]

Oooops. That what I was thinking about

[ullekush]

it looks like the tail is about to fall off

[wheeler295]

You noticed the video says, "Startup" not "fly around" you mornons.

[juliepollard]

Thanks for noticing - most people don't seem to either read or pay attention to the descriptions - they just want something to complain about.

[wheeler295]

lol no problem, its what I'm here for.

[sngldad]

sounds like a wead eater

[hpd611]

The tail rotor isn't out of balance, the pilot is just not trimming his foot controls.

[yonek2008]

fly fly go go go...:((

[qtip67t]

He shouldn't fly it until he balances the rotor system. That tail rotor is out of balance.

[markotubex]

the mother fucker never takes off what a fucking waste of time

[erikinhawaii]

relax, it's only the internet...

[user1154101]

Makes a great hair drier... My wife would like that...

[killerphobia]

you waisted my fucking time watching this dumb shit

[ianlanc]

is it nail;ed to the floor

[tomterahedrob]

Ive never seen that model fly.

[BOCHIS123]

i wouldnt ride that....looks dangerous

[flyingbrick88]

powers not issue. he just needs to pull up on the collective lever.

[wil6817]

Sounds like a lawn mover.......... probably is.

[ritualghost]

what the fuck is a lawn mover?

[wil6817]

lawn mower*. my bad

[sdrfgvrfgvsfravgdsvS]

is a toy helicopter

[darrinjeffrieskilla]

whats wrong with the rear propeller its wobbling

[stinkingdog101]

Bridge to Engineering...Scotty I need more power.

[emperialist]

nice comment!

[annihil8ted]

How high would someone dare to go or wats it range.?

[lilbrudder32]

Ultralights cannot go higher than 10,000 ft and cannot carry more than 5 gallons of fuel.

[HKJAI76]

damn take off already

[juliepollard]

You have to get 2-cycle engines up to operating temp first before going to full throttle otherwise you risk them seizing up and falling out of the sky.

[codyclemmons92]

how high can these go.

[House2424]

doesnt it look like right when u get off the ground ur weights just gonna break the whole plan

[miniheli]

I love that it has no canopy or wind screen! Why is the tail vibrating so much? I know its a helicopter, but its wiggling abit to much.

[juliepollard]

The wiggling comes to a stop once the rotors are up to speed - it actually appeared very smooth with little vibration when it was hovering and flying about - and I was standing right behind it.

[JUSTINMOORE12]

scary.

[ultraflight4471]

These helis look alot better with a canopy.

[juliepollard]

It's that open air, out there, nothing in between you and the sky, bugs in your teeth feeling that I am looking for though, and this machine really has that feeling - that it's just you hanging out there in the sky without all of that canopy around you. It's like the difference between driving a sedan and driving a convertible.

[muranoera666]

Cool, I'd really like to die in this kind of helicopter

[team222badbrad]

I LOVE THESE but that tail looks crap.

It is flexing and shaking all over the place.

[juliepollard]

You should have seen it in person - It was flexing A LOT up and down - the flexing seemed to stop once the rotors were up to full speed and it smoothed out - I guess thats why they use a carbon fiber tailboom - strength and light weight.

[tatet357]

NICE
