Go Mark! Reminds of when dad and I used to go flying our gyro-copter in the desert in the 70s with the gyro club. He/we made the worlds first 2 seat gyro-copter and metal-fiberglass composite rotors...before 1968
Amazing job!!… I started posting my progress videos on my account… I’m 5 hours in on learning how to fly helicopter … I can’t wait till I can pick up and fly away like you do in this video… I need a fishing pole mount on my helicopter soon!…. If you arrange a ultralight helicopter fly in let me know!
Oh, man - you are living my dream. Did you design and build this or did you go the kit route? Looks extremely stable and nice and responsive. If you're going to offer plans or sections I'd love to know. Stay safe!
@@larrymorley8968 The Mirocopter SCH-2A is manufactured in Slovenia and is not offered as a kit. They fabricate, assemble and test-fly before it is shipped to you. There is some reassembly required but that takes less than a day to do. Once reassembled it is ready to fly. It is VERY stable compared to a regular helicopter! Thanks!
Nice video! Question, It seems like in the video that the stick seems to be shaking a bit. Is that because the blades my need rebalanced? When I build my A/W 95 thee stick controls seemed really smooth with really no vibrations. I was really shocked about that because I figured it would of been a lot worse.
@@larryrodziewicz8437 Thank you Larry. Yes, I noticed that too in the video. What is strange is that I don't feel that vibration and my hand is not numb from vibration after the flight is done. I'm not sure why it looks like it is vibrating that much because the helicopter feels smooth.
@@coaxman Have you done or practiced any autorotations yet? Just wondering with the distance and height your flying just in case you know. I wish it could be fitted with a ballistic parachute system of some sorts. Just for ease of mind!
@@yukon4511 auto-rotation is actually better in a coaxial because the rotor system has more inertia and the decent rate is slower than a single rotor system. I am about 300 to 400 ft above the ground during this flight. I could easily fly higher if I wanted to.
@coaxman Thank you for the reply. Good to know about autorotation. I've watched so many chinese viideos where they are flying at tree-top level, I had to ask. When I was flying helicopters, Hughes 300/500, I felt I had a better choice of engine-out options when I was above 1000".
I live in Southern California and I cannot teach you how to build a helicopter. The Mirocopter is produced in Slovenia and I am a distributor for them here in the United States.

I had the opportunity to watch the first public demonstration of the MiroCopter at Airventure 2022. Quite the experience lol!
Gratulacje za pomysł i realizację, super!
"Hey, I can see your house from here"
How the hell did that get off the ground with balls that big!!

Looks Great, Mark-looking forward to meeting you and the bird on Saturday at Oshkosh!
What would you estimate cruise speed to be?
Nice video.
Good luck.
Thanks for another great video 😊
How many hours do you have in it now?
Thank you! I have about 10 hours now.
@@coaxmanCan we get close up video of the drivetrain and rotors... ?

@@larrymorley8968 It is available to buy. Mirocopter, SCH 2A, made in the EU, part 103 category in the States….

@@larryrodziewicz8437 Here are several powered recovery autorotations. They are easy and stable. ruclips.net/video/PQ8RLeEMudk/видео.html
Nice video. Why do coaxial helicopters fly so low all the time? Is autorotation not as good as a single rotor?

Master , Where do you live and can you teach how to build a helicopter?
I live in Southern California and I cannot teach you how to build a helicopter. The Mirocopter is produced in Slovenia and I am a distributor for them here in the United States.
What is the max. did you take off in this helicopter?
@@deadpavuk7657 Max pilot weight is 270. That is me flying.
@@coaxman Low. Try at least 1km 🙂
