In 1989 EliSport, which became Heli-Sport in 1997, bought the rights to the Cicare CH-6, a small single-seat open cockpit helicopter designed in Argentina by Augusto Cicaré. It was developed by Josi and Claudio Barbero and, with the help of the sports car designer, Marcello Gandini who produced a new, enclosed cabin, marketed from 1992 as the ...
The CoAX 2D/2R was originally known as the FLIP 2 (Fly In Perfection) and is a derivative of the FLIP 1, a conventional helicopter with a main and tail rotor.[1]The CoAX 2D/2R was designed to comply with the European Class 6 microlight helicopter rules, including the category's maximum takeoff weight of 450 kg (992 lb).
The aircraft has a standard empty weight of 252 lb (114 kg). It features a single main rotor, an enclosed cockpit with a windshield, skid-type landing gear and a twin cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke, single-ignition 55 hp (41 kW) Hirth 2703 engine. [1] [3] The aircraft fuselage fairing is made from composites.
The piston engine-powered CH-8 ultralight series use the traditional "penny-farthing" layout with two-bladed main and tail rotors. The main rotor is formed from composites and is a teetering, semi-rigid design with 6° of twist. The pod-and-boom fuselage has a carbon fiber and epoxy resin cabin with a long transparent forward-opening canopy.
It also reportedly makes greater use of titanium and composites in its rotor blades and rotor, [4] and replaces the Z-8's boat-shaped lower fuselage with a tail ramp for small vehicles. [1] It has a glass cockpit [2] and is powered by three WZ-6C turboshafts. [2] [1] The Z-18's maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) is 13.8 tonnes.
The first aerobatic manned drone, as this type of electrically powered multi-rotor helicopter is known, had 12 rotors and could carry 1-2 people. [37] Manned drones or eVTOL as they are called typically multirotor designs powered by batteries gained increasing popularity and designs in the 2020s. [38]
Ducted fan tail rotors have also been used in the Russian Kamov Ka-60 medium-lift helicopter, [17] and also on the Japanese military's Kawasaki OH-1 Ninja reconnaissance rotorcraft. French light helicopter manufacturer Hélicoptères Guimbal has also used a Fenestron for their Guimbal Cabri G2, a compact reciprocating engine-powered rotorcraft ...
The Wasp is a traditional pod and boom helicopter with a twin-blade rotor powered by a 90shp (97 kW) Garrett JFS-100-13A turboshaft engine. [1] It has a fixed skid landing gear and enclosed cabin with two-seat side-by-side seats. [1]
