This for $8750,000 yeahhhh keep dreaming lol they also claim this little potato of a helicopter fully loaded can fly for 3 hours on a full tank, yet doesn't show us were are they putting all of that fuel?....
IRL if this ever comes into production, certification for helicopters is a nightmare ... it will cost between 3x to 5x this price. 3 to 5 million dollars. a fadec turbine heli, with hover ap, all glass panel ... it has Agusta 109 / Airbus H125 specs, range, size... and it also has to pay for the turbine and avionics R&D. There is a reason most manufacturers don't do this.
@@hubschenk1652 Only the rich will buy these. They are built for luxury. Not utility. Rarely do we see top end helis flying common people anywhere, unless injured. HX50 cannot be an air ambulance, as designed.
GPT tells me though that aviation fuel is at an insane price in Switzerland ... around 6x of that of Italy ... leading to over 420$ per hour ... wtf :/
That one stage engine sounds... well... kinda new. I hate being new.... I do like making it to being called old though, as I have done with restriction and careful thought.

Replace "is, are" with "are supposed to become, should become" throughout the video please. This, at a price of half a Cirrus SR22T G7, my prediction, will never happen. Or at any other price. I think they started out with 500k, now it's 750k, then 1,5 M and then it will be canned, before delivery of a single certified helicopter. That's what (sadly) I think will happen. If not, I hope it fits our hangar 😉
I sincerely hope nobody here believes this will sell for 1 million USD !!! It is impossible to have M.Hill talk about the finances of the company. He avoids the subject everytime. Hill is extremely behind its initial plan...They built another big building that was not planned right now. $$$. He is a great salesman, we have to give him credit for that !
Unfortunately they still don't have a running engine to put into the helicopter. They are still trying to figure out n test various fuel burns to reach their promised specs. N with over 900 promises to people that have already prepaid for an hx50 they haven't even had a test flight. They are a long way off from reaching their 2025 delivery to the 900 that already bought one
Unfortunately you're wrong, everything is on schedule. Those that ordered early did so with the knowledge that there may be delays but it's coming together and the buyers are are all happy and are fully behind Dr. Hill and his team. The company is fully transparent and buyers are informed about all developments, including engine devs
@@Ronnie_B I am well aware of the transparency. Where do you think the info came from? Their RUclips account. N at the time that I made that comment everything was completely accurate. They have graciously given a further update since then. But they still don't have a running engine yet. N even if you ordered one today, you won't see an hx-50 in your garage for at least 3 years. Which is fine cuz by then they'll have figured out all the unforseen issues that may come up with repeated flights of production models. I'm just as hyped as everyone else to see the first prototype spin it's rotors for the first time
@@highcottonhoneybeecompany3299 well yeah lol obviously. It's a sick helicopter design. N I'm all for what Jason Hill is doing. I just want to see one in the air n see what kind of specs it's actually gonna do vs the projected specs
Oh dear. 4 years later and I can't find any video of an engine test run. Looks like lots of smoke n mirrors for funding? I can't see how you'd get any decent efficiency with a single stage compressor and single stage turbine. After one year, they should have had an engine running even if it was made of steel and lasted 10min. Just as proof of concept

I hope flight schools adopt this as a trainer. She's gorgeous! Looks like a baby Airwolf! A real powerball toy!
It will never be built, Hill is just a conman.
Awesome product by hill...
Specific for private use... that's amazing
Yes it is!
He doesn't have a product.
Must be the most beautiful bird ever, stunning in every way.
ach160?
Even £1M British Pounds sounds like a great price for this beauty. It would be incredible if they really can sell this for under $1M USD!
Never going to happen, not one will ever be built.
Robinson should be worried, theHX50 design and look is fabulous.
I don't think they really care. Hill doesn't even have a prototype yet and not to mention zero track record.
Hill is a conman taking money from the gullible.

@@Rostol It's just a con to separate investors from their money. It will never be built.
I hope to see one flying soon.
You may never see one. Personally.

Great info, I've been waiting for this review.
Glad it was helpful!
I want this aircraft simulated in MSFS so much!
Didn't know I want a helicopter - great video :D
Thank you!

I swear the only reason this was recommended to me was because after a day on the road traveling I jokingly said “I need a helicopter”. Lol
That's crazy😂
The Hill HX50 is an awesome helicopter. I would love to own one.
Concept. It does not exist !
Just amazing and stunning air craft great for all out transportation and site seeing!
Couldn't agree more!
Muita tecnologia embarcada! Parabéns!
What an amazing machine.
QUE MAQUINA, MARAVILHOSA, TRANSPORTE DO FUTURO ATUAL,
Great looking machine..The question is....they've missed a litany of deadlines.....Will it ever fly?
We shall see
I loved❤❤❤❤❤

I just bought the winning Mega Millions ticket. I will buy 2 of these.
Lo compro desde puerto rico muy elegante gracias
what about the dimensions of the engine
I need one!

This chopper fits perfectly with my 15 million dollar yacht.
Does it fly ? Because this video reminds me of the promo videos of the Nikola truck. Beautiful, flashy and non-functional.
It doesn't fly yet
What happened to the 650k mark?
Seems like at least for now the price is 595,000 GBP, which is about 750,000 USD

If not, I hope it fits our hangar 😉
My deposit has me locked in for $550k. If it does anywhere near the advertised specs it will be awesome!
I hope you sleep well at night regarding your deposit ;)
At this rate of price increase the thing is going to be $4 million by the time all is said and done.
Very likely
This reminds me of the Icon A5, lol.
@@rcac1023What did you smoke then?
The turboshaft engine alone will most likely cost $400 000

Plz show me pilots driving skills sir
Robinson R66 turbine has 270 hp and sells for over a million new. Good luck with a 750k price tag.
World's 1st fully private helicopter??
Does it fly?
Not yet
Bits & pieces
@@Skidderoperator Not even that. Just Renderings, CGI and mockups.
@@shazam6274 They have several choppers, no engines yet.
@@Skidderoperator The 2 they have are not operable / flyable mockup displays. They will never be operable or flyable!
kind of re mind's of the rc bald eclps helicopter
A Oceanco Esquel with a Hill HX50. Perfect match 💎💙

Standard on future super yachts.

750k???? No way, unless the base model doesn't include an engine.
For now they say that it will be 750k, we'll see if they raise the price in the future
Hope don’t run MicroSoft Windows lol
This shi is a game changer for sure… except human transportation to evolve within the next few decades.
Probably less…
Inevitable.
