  • Can this rotor and prop design be used on any gyro?

  • how much is it something like this?

  • Great!I want to bild a motorgilder.

    What the name of this song?

  • That is the most awesome lawn chair I've ever seen...

  • You mention that the "single place used a 3 pitch rotor". Is the plan to use a collective / cyclic system in the four-place, and is collective under pilot control of some level of automation?

  • I think I had one I'd like something between me and the rotor

  • Extremely nice. Congrats!

  • AIR WOLF SONG HA HA

  • string11 - That was full gross weight for the single place. Our 4-place prototype will be able to perform similar takeoffs fully loaded. We are designing it for real world jump takeoffs, not just to impress people with an empty aircraft (Google Pitcairn PA-36 for an example).

  • stormfox1 - It all depends on your needs. If you need hover, you need a helicopter. If you only need to takeoff and land vertically, the gearbox for a prerotator is much lighter than for a helicopter, and you eliminate the weight of a tail rotor or other anti-torque device, so you can carry more useful load.
