@WladBlank No, it was surprisingly stable. At the most it would push it backwards a foot or two. The counter rotating props acted as a gyro. It was almost impossible to flip it over, even if you tried.
i think some kind of generator to assist the main propulsion system could potentially lead to virtually unlimited range on small personal transport aircraft. even if it only travels at say 60 mph if it is virtually unlimited range then you have the unique ability to travel vast distances in small machines eliminating the need for lots of fuel space. generators combined with solar power for unlimited range electric aircraft even if only slow speed. you could even sleep on it in auto pilot mode
@Nomoreidsleft There's a good reason many of the contracts for new transportation/aviation technology are from the military - faster tanks, more versatile aircraft, and more reliable equipment in general are often all that stands between you, a rock, and a hard place. I'm not usually one to defend the military, but I'm sick of seeing this weaksauce argument against militarization, when historically they're usually the only ones willing to give this sort of stuff the time of day.
Wasn't that good for their use, noisy, made the pilot a good target and only had a 50 mile range If I remember correctly. However the forest service was interested for awhile, but they were not putting much money into that department back then.
Isnt shooting with guns from that dangerous?
The muzzle could through it over, or not?

@ArtemisFour Yeah, but his design could never work in reality (to actually screw into the air). But he did have an interesting imagination.

That is what you heard ufo crash. This is ufo for military design hovercraft to stable hover so they can aim enemies well.

Dear All,
I have some questions on psychology:
*why do we enjoy flying and design new flying mechines?
*What is the motivation for us to invent new flying mechines continuously?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creatives ideas and brainstorm!!!
