OK I was waiting on parts to be delivered...so I stumble across a Mosquito helicopter crash video..


There are parts 2 and 3 also, But I was like who is this guy?
So I find out He (the guy crashing the helicopter) is the inventor of Soloflex,
Thought it interesting a millionaire CEO building his own Heli..

Quick story

I did get my parts, but I cannot remember where they go..... ADD really sucks sometimes.

Something to learn about dynamic roll over.
When your undercarriage tilts more than your cyclic can hold pulling power will put you into the ground.....just like that!
2 bladed ones more likely to do it.
Usually letting the collective down saves your butt....and a few dollars.....

THANKS !!! ... I read the E book story , interesting life he had , lots of good stories and he is a great storyteller.

Chapter 28 around page 109 tells about the GYRODYNE X-RON ROTORCYCLE he owned and flew , He said the Porsche racing motor was time expired in only 35 hours , toss it out and put a new one in and go flying again .

He said the open frame of the Rotorcycle was his favorite way to fly so thus the Mosquito Helicopter in later life.
