Wouldn't a normal heli head start coming apart at 8000? When a heli is doing 2500-3600 thats when everyone ducks. It's like a bomb waiting to go off.[X(]

Yup, the only saving grace is that we (plane 4D guys) could use smaller (lighter) blades (prop). I just know, I've had old loose linkages come apart in flight on my heli. Wasn't a major issue as I recall, it just started acting weird and I was able to land it.

Teamsme, mechanically it's just like a helicopter rotor head, totally doable. Just need a bunch of ambition to actually carry it out. If you look at some of these video, it is just a heli tail rotor set-up. Clever, but nothing new, just a new application. It's like the first guy who put a turbo charger on a two-stoke snowmobile.

The real challenge will be in flying the contraption! But that seems to also already have been proven possible.

Eh, this whole inverted hovering thing is already so yesterday.

Yep, next thing we will be doing backwards rolling harriers.

Alan Szabo is already doing that LOL! I know how the system would work, just how to control it. Im very interested in this and will probably be doing a porject with my knuffel. And heres a vid of a better setup by Manuel Nubel
http://www.modellvideos.de/videos/Kn...-die-zwote.wmv his setup is insane, It pull 15 amps on a kokam 340 which should only put out about 9 or 10 lol! Id like to see if his battery is still at 100% capacity after each charge.

Yea, I think that's the video we've been refering too. But he only has collective (variable pitch). I want to see somebody put a full heli rotor head on a plane so it would have cyclic too! You could then put even more forces on the plane than just forward-back (using the prop/blades).

thats my plan for the freestyles!

so wait!!!! You already have a set up?!?!?! any pics?
i dont think any one else noticed what you said about doing at the freestyles.....
