That was awesome
 can you imagine what people thought when they saw one of those in the 20's or 30's for the first time    Is that how the motor is supposed to sound? Or did it have an issue with one cylinder? It looks to me like they have fitted some sort of muffler to each cylinder? Maybe one they couldn't get a muffler on? It sounded like it revved to about 1000rpm  Great video  _________________ I do all of my own stunts..... most of them are even planned! Ok, Ok.... some of them are planned..

Major COOL...
THX Gabor! Did the original have a pre-rotator? Seems I remember something about it being capable of jump launch... or was that another? Anyhow, THX for the video, will share it with non-aviation folks. _________________ John Morgan PP-SEL Former member PRA Member PeachState Rotorcraft club Member Sunstate Rotor & Wing Club Owner/builder of The Subinator: Single place Dominator/Subaru EA-81 (currently in full restoration) Soon to offer machine shop services |

Pitcairn started by building Cierva machines under license.... he actually discovered prerotation before Cierva.... basically, the 'student' surpassed the master
I would dare to suggest, that is how it were born _________________ I do all of my own stunts..... most of them are even planned! Ok, Ok.... some of them are planned.. If electricity comes from ELECTRONS, then surely morality comes from MORONS?? |
