UH=1 by
Brien
The rear transmission support on a UH-1, is this one support mostly for the
twisting action of translational lift ? Or is it more of a vibration or
shock unit. As it is only held in by (8) -3 bolts it hard to think of any
real support.

Helicycle Insurance by
sjmadden
Can you get liability insurance for the
Helicycle? If so, how much would it run in ballpark figures.
What do you do with your Helicycle. Do you fly over 100 miles in it or
do you just fly within a short area. I am interested in the
helicopter, but one seat and limited range make me think twice. ...

balancing act by
Stuart & Kathryn Fields
Here's one for the pros: I was balancing my tail rotor and had it down to
0.27 ips and still had just a touch too much weight where I had added it.
So still needing to safety wire a bolt that is located in the center of the
tail rotor output shaft, I chose to safety it to a hole 180 degrees from...

Anyone here flying a Little Wing gyro? by
[email protected]
Greetings,
I just purchased plans for the Little Wing, and am trying to get an
idea of how many of them are flying. I really like the idea of a
tractor configuration, but there just aren't many of them around.
Thanks,
Rusty
