AirScooter

[losttreasurehunt]

What size engine is on those babies?

[kaykan0]

sit,stop, roll over, good boy here is your cookie



[routhoula]

i would guess this cost, what 100K?

[dingdingdingdiiiiing]

I wouldn't fly it if it didn't have auto destruct rotor if engine stops and auto eject pilot seat with an parachute after the rotor destructed.

[TtimWh]

@dingdingdingdiiiiing ur a knobjockey. please look up auto landings

[dingdingdingdiiiiing]

@TtimWh if the engine or whatever part of rotor mechanism fails, the helicopter will not glide, but fall like a rock. Please look up gravity.

[TtimWh]

@dingdingdingdiiiiing Actually helicopters are safer to land when the engine fails than a plane because they can land anywhere, whereas a plane needs to glide to a safe runway. Helicopters can also glide after engine malfunction because of the inertia (or momentum) of the rotors. The trick is to decrease, or invert the pitch thus not loosing head speed and once the heli is near the ground flare out and increase pitch, eqauls a sfae landing, that all heli pilots can do.

[dingdingdingdiiiiing]

@TtimWh /watch?v=O7UwLWgtsE0 and /watch?v=I1ftIZaQ1ZM kind of respectfully disagree... the speed nor the altitude are great, but the damage is quite apparent, passengers aren't harmed obviously, but I'm pretty sure if they were traveling at 150mph at 300 feet, they wouldn't stand much of a chance now would they? I doubt rotor would have enough momentum to crash them down under 20G's.

[TtimWh]

@dingdingdingdiiiiing LOL, I was about to agree with you and say that auto rotations dont work 100% (obviuosly) and that I never meant that heli's are totally safe. But then I watched the two videos and both of them dont proove anything, I mean come on, in the first vid the u cant even see the crash because its behind trees, and in the second one u cant see anything because its taken onboard and the impact doesnt even seem all that great...keep reading below

[TtimWh]

@dingdingdingdiiiiing I realy dont care wat u think about heli's, Im just trying to make a point that with a skilled pilot, a heli doesnt just fall oput of the sky like a rock if the engine fails. Heres proof: /watch?v=E2a9H8Xw8Mo and /watch?v=4JqmoWAhv5g I know this isnt always the case, but its still worth knowing. And if u still dont believe me then buy ur own rc heli and try it urself...or stfu

[ChuaShaoCong]

dear santa...

[seanherbert1]

Still trying to flog this off boys. Death from above when the engine stops!! put it with the Skycar as its is a con job as well.

[Melina1022]

how much do they cost

[mgking77]

The "Pretty Neat Guy" was so uninterested. What he really wanted to say was "You stupid son of a bitch this is what you made my old ass come all the way up here for?"

[shuprudko]

содрали из Камовского к-10

[brent52]

Russian came out with the blade sippping design Kamov-25

[DynamoDylan]

Damn I would never take that thing 10000 feet up I think I would only take it max 3000

[fyrebyrd301]

@DynamoDylan I suppose falling from 3000ft is better than 10000ft? Id prefer to fall from 10000ft, gives you enough time to wipe, before you hit the ground.

[kakslapu]

I wanna see it go 55mph !! Bullshit its not stable. People will be robbing banks with these and maybe get away.

[roadrash2187]

It looks like the blades are fixed pitch. If so is there some way to recover in case of engine failure? Especially since autorotation would be out of the question.

[Jokerone72]

now thats what i need to get to work dose the speed limit and gose over trafic what more do u need

[MasterTuxie]

It fly's BUT does it blend?

[ARMA770077]

КА-10 1949год

[monasticbeing]

Yeah, 60 minutes. Our country was pilfered, we're bankrupt and entering the Great Depression and no one has gone to jail, but honey come see this funny lookin flying machine.

[bammachinima]

lol @ the older dude. "thats pretty cool" "thats neat". i love how he said it lol :P

[AdudenamedKemp]

Clint Eastwood approves.

[aaronzack14]

youre fucked if you run out of fuel #1

[odmcarp]

@aaronzack14 you die #2

[MrJetjoe]

the bigest problem is gulide power they have none. airplanes are much better and simple. but you get a 10 for trying something!!!

[MrJetjoe]

the bigest problem is gulide power they have none. airplanes are much better and simple.

[artpeacemaster]

wow they did it somebody actually invented a flying machian for one person and its a good thing they didn't make it peddle power, because I would have gotten tired, ooooo I want an airscooter.

[Pray4Lifedotcom]

I know a awesome safey Device, a Freakn parachute switch on it, so if the engine fails, it just deploy's a parchute ontop of the model and you will go go down safely, act fast though . :)

[ksandom40]

This is the first time I've seen this concept on a full size helicopter. The modeles are so incredibly stable, it's really cool to see it in reality.

[schlusselmensch]

@ksandom40 This rotor configuration is as old as the hills.

[RTiger18]

How much does this thing cost?

[vality1]

more like an open chopper

[Nomoreidsleft]

Good for places with no roads, but 55mph for 2 hours, is equivalent to driving on a road, so what's the advantage? Despite, what they say, flying it will require skills beyond driving a car, and an engine breakdown results in a crash.

[SDKev858]

cool

[dangerdave059]

would be cool for milatary use, can u imagin a thousand air troops on them armed with automatic weapons?

[komintoes194]

@dangerdave059 there cool until a fully auto .50 cal gets under them.

[tatarin789]

a ka 10 Russian-made

[Rettungsliegerfan]

looks like a kamov ka 10

[leigh2Rule]

you chicken shits drive cars or ride the train... thats just as dangerous.. grow some balls and stop ya complaining

[postkip]

its the same as a normal helicopter...

[bboice02]

Your hunky bloody shit would be all over because of lack of skill would cause it limey .

[skypirate553]

That thing is sweeeeeeeeeet ... Too bad i cant never afford one ... :(  And give these guys some credit , this thing is nice ...

[moss197]

Not even if you paid me, would I fly this hunk of shit. 10k?! Are they bloody for real?

[leviterande]

wowo no cyclic pitch .. and yet it works .. ..

[19BlackLord91]

cost ... cost ?

[th3boy75]

like 50 grand or something like that

[DeeJayMontevideo]

Is too much by kill you self a bulletis more fast and cheap :)

[meaty459]

i thought scooters were small and supposed to be for little kids...i dont think i would let a little kid fly that around

[lcl86]

Hi ppl don`t buy it. There is going to be more high- tech flying machines soon.... some really newly found technologies....

[leviterande]

Hi man what kind of machines?

[BrazillianFOsho]

@lcl86 what makes u say that?

[leviterande]

@lcl86 enlighten me please tell me what technologies?

[leviterande]

@lcl86 o yeah if you mean the people in 140 years from now . yep you may be correct. "good technology is never released to puplic until toooooo late"

[UNDERLANDSOUNDS]

@lcl86 Oh, thanks for the heads up... i was just looking for my card... you saved me a lot of money!

[odmcarp]

i want 3 of those.

[iJul1609]

Rule #1: do NOT wave hi to anyone while rotors are in motion. Ever.

[theman77777777232]

It seems parachutes are not an option since you would get copped to bits.

[ScorpionTrooper]

Rule #2: do NOT get angry with someone while the rotors are on, especially when you're flying 1000 feet high.

[lebcom]

we dont have money for this!!

[AceHard750mm]

Ka-8 parody...

[nuclearspike]

I think I'd just prefer a paramotor where if the motor fails your parachute is already deployed and you just float back down.

[gilessmokey]

or find a thermal and climb,i have done that to the bottom of the clouds. but just to let people know that a paraglider/motor wing is stallable and collapsable.(done them too) also i have seen a paramotor stall and dump the pilot to the ground from about 60 feet,pilot survived with crushed vertibrae

[toyachen88]

Look! A flying guillotine!

[doctordam]

What happen if engine fails? Is autorotation feature being affected by the short and double main rotor?

[smgman13]

that and what about a strong tail wind? or low g? Or ground resonance?

The rules might not be the same though...

[JUKIO01]

wow, its a helicopter! cool!

[DerVampyrEngel]

Oh I see , like the Black Shark Attack Helicopter, I was wondering if you could makea very fast helicopter with that type of system

[DerVampyrEngel]

So how does it work without a tail rotor if you are not using tipjets? still a very cool helicopter

[HeliAddict123]

it uses a two rotors. they cancel out the torque by spinning in opposite directions.

[beardeddragster]

contrarotating (or however you spell it) very stable little helis

[Techlari]

although if 1 rotor would stop working you would be into serious problems unless the other rotor shuts off to prevent torque although then you would go down unless maybe putting a parachute inside the cylinder of the rotors that can be ejected.
