Has anyone successfully made and marketed gyro rotor blades with a twist???
A change in the angle/attack along the length?

Yes, Dragon wings, but the twist is the other way for gyros.... we have no pitch in the center and about 6 degrees at the tips.... helicopters have more pitch at the root because they are driven, same for a prop, more pitch near hub and less at the tip :shoot :yoda2 :Wolvie

I love rotor blades !!! its an obsession I think :)

I would like to see a video of them making those BERP tipped blades from start to finish.

Probably some trade secrets involved and they dont want everybody to see it

I am just interested in how composite gyro rotors are made.... purely out of interest? They worry me (small hand run composites) and I guess knowing how they are made would make them less scary :eek :laughing :laughing

Ya know... there are composite body aircraft out there...
And if their batteries would not overheat... they would be fine... :)

The secret is Women, Women listen to instructions......
I know your internet data is limited so the rotorblade process starts @ 6:30...

You are right .... give women assembly or manufacturing instructions and they will usually follow them exactly

... we men get thinking too much and always try to "improve stuff" ... or do it "our way" ... improving stuff is OK , but it should be worked out in our design department .... not on the assembly floor.

Lots of good stuff in that video .... would be a good introduction for newbies wanting some basic gyro info.

Next thing you will be telling me... women would do a better job in govt...

I can just see it now... Betty POTUS is in the morning briefing in the Oval office... and she hears a Moouslim committed an act of terrorism... and her time of the month starts tomorrow....
Poor terrorist...

Hmmm... Maybe this is not such a bad idea... :punch

Ya know... it says a lot about a whole race that cannot control themselves around women... as if they are afraid of what Muz calls pussy power.

And we are supposed to respect these folks as equals... just because they have oil to sell...
Stupid shit if anyone asked me... but they do not (ask me).
