    My friend, I usually don't leave comments, but I just wanted to say thank you. As a child I was obsessed with aircraft. I got my pilots license at 19 and never looked back. At 63 I am disabled and am un able to renew my license. I am relegated to RC aircraft and am particularly inspired to build an experimental light aircraft thanks to your videos. Thank you again for all your hard work, and yes, it takes a lot of work to put together a series of youtube videos. Cheers!

  • @davidgiles4681
    @davidgiles4681 3 года назад

    in 1931/3 Sirkosky solved the torque problem of copters. He put a tail rotor (for both torque control and direction control). Throughout history - copters have had the torque problem (torque translated to the main body of the device). A machine producing torque will transfer that torque to the main body (the main reason a copter can auto-rotate when power fails)
    Auto-rotatation means that the torque in the engine will cause main body to spin. This as the effect of bleeding the energy of the copter and potentially causing a rough landing that yoy may walk away.
    Sirkosky invented the helicopter we now use today.
    WWII Germany was one of the 1st nations to grasp this idea and create an entire line of copters.

    Great vid! hyper-interesting! One note about "Further" and "Farther". Always use "farther" when talking about actual distance. For example: "With the remaining windings on this rubber band, the helicopter could have flown much farther." Use "further" when it's a verb as in "To further my in-home education, I subscribed to an online documentary series". Also user "further" when you are talking about degree. "The further I get into my project, the more money I have to borrow from David." All good wishes.

    Since your main rotor is spinning clockwise, the reason your helicopter keeps turning left (yaw) is because your tail rotor isn’t producing enough force to compensate. If you slightly increased the pitch if that tail rotor or got it to spin slightly faster that will alleviate that left yaw

    Try adding a NOTAR type deflector on the tail boom (and/or the nose boom). It deflects the downdraft to counter the main rotor torque, what the tail rotor does. When set just right it counteracts at the same rate as the main rotor torque.

  • @WhatDadIsUpTo
    @WhatDadIsUpTo 9 месяцев назад

    Something I made about 20 years ago was an r/c helo with a pusher prop and rudder. I used a hinged main rotor and mounted two tiny out-runner motors on the fly bars, each chasing the other, offsetting any angular momentum, which would otherwise be present, were the rotor driven by stationary means. It worked pretty well.

    Need to reduce the pitch of the rotor at the tips. Form them on a larger diameter form and offset up to 15 degrees. Static balance the rotor. This was fun to watch.

    Hey Peter, I've been in Science Olympiad for about 6 years now, and we had an event for both freeflight balsa airplanes and freeflight helicopters. My favourite event was helicopters and we used a very interesting technique you may have seen recently, called chinook. Our copters and planes were all balsa powered and it would be really cool to see you try to make some of those! You probably know about Joshua Finn already but his channel shows off the freeflight kits most teams use.

    I built a rubber powered heli as a kid. Was a balsa tube about 3/4 “ in diameter, 12 inches long. The top was a teetering rotor. The bottom rotor was attached a couple inches below the top to the tube. As it unwound the motor it counterrotated. The bottom pivoted on a model wheel bearing, the tube went through the top of the fuselage. I think it needed weights on the front of the rotors to make it stable

    Interesting development process! Watched in wonder and awe through the whole thing. I did helicopters too but mine were a tiny bit bigger than yours. Ended up as head of future projects of a small outfit where our Lynx held the world speed record for helicopters. Our helicopters had semi-rigid rotors actuated by dangleberries so didn't have those wambly teetering rotor things. Two technical points....one you seem to have solved but may have reneged on, and that is the top tail rotor blade should rotate aft .... and the other relates to when I used to teach helicopter flight performance at uni, and that is it is pointless to get too complicated in the flower arranging department since helicopters fly simply because they are so ugly that the earth rejects them. Nice project....congratulations.

  • @brazenh2836
    @brazenh2836 3 года назад +4

    Maybe try a spring coil with a gear reduction system. The gears can also be ratcheted so you can tighten with drill without spinng the blades. A copper spring from a clock should be good for weight...

  • @microgliders
    @microgliders 3 года назад +2

    you can control the tail more precisely using gear reduction, also position the fly bar on top of the blades with lead weights, flybar needs to have heavy tips. i have designed a working version few years back and flew amazing, well done, love the balsa propeller idea

    Green soap and glycerine as a lube for the rubber will both allow more winds to be put in and make the strands last longer. There is less inter-strand friction and abrasion with that.
