Great videos ... some of those machines I have never heard of before ... that early Kaman intermesher was pretty impressive in flight.

Noland Brothers, meet them at sun n fun - They got a little pale when I brought up "what about contaminated fuel?"

With the two fuel source twin engine stuff. Not a bad idea

Has anyone ever made (I am just thinking out loud of one idea I have been pandering) making a coaxial BUT!!!!! With the upper disc having shorter and wider blades and if needed extra pitch to equal out the torque? Just for making the height a bit less between the two sets of blades. Shorter blades flex less.
:beefcake

I wish I had an area close to me that was large enough to play with this thing close to the ground.
I would have to trailer it 42 miles one way for a safe area.
I've had it off the ground and that was spooky at first.

QH 50's little brother RON 1 by Gyrodyne of Flower field New York.... ASK helicopters bought it as a salvage sale and sold it to these guys who market as their 'new' idea

I bought my Mouse rotor blades from them long ago - Gyrodyne is now into commercial real estate

Again, why isnt one of these commercially viable?
Is it because they cant auto rotate? I know you said some contras can some cant.
This should be the shit of brought to market the right way.

Coaxil helicopters suffer from - higher cost X2 main rotor systems - and control reversal in yaw during autorotation

(QH 50 & RON 1 had no issues in yaw - servo drag flaps for yaw)

Noland is fixed pitch

No demand?
