Would you fly this one?
Its amazing that someone thought that would be a good idea.
http://1000aircraftphotos.com/Helicopters/999.htm Would you fly this one? Definitely! The reason, why somebody tried this very good, but unusual (and at first confusing) concept is: As we all know, a helicopter is at least statically unstable. This is one of the big disadvantages esp. in hovering. BUT, if the CG is above the rotor disc, the whole things becomes stable!!!
