Very well done !! With your skills/tooling a DeLackner flying platform had you in the air a long time ago.... The Hiller is a very inefficient machine....too small rotors/propellers-too much power needed. You are a very skilled fabricator !
excellent work. I always wondered why no one picked up this project. increase the mass of the rotating assembly, for example by using a heavy fly wheel. That will keep the balance perfectly.
Maybe a 6 blade ducted fan will work better with that duct than the 3 blade propeller. Also the 2 stroke engines produce their peak power around 6,000-6,500 rpm. The pitch on the propeller might be set up to aggressive so the engine is is struggling to get to high RPMs. It sound like is running at 5,000 rpms but i could be wrong. I had 3 hovercraft all with Rotax engines and those engines run happy at 6,500rpm.
I encountered several of these, well Soviet designs as I was crawling through a fetid swamp in Russia. Later after I had destroyed an ICBM launching giant tank with screws instead of treads and dispatched a rogue Colonel who used a Davy Crokett to destroy a design bureau, myself and a codebreaker for the NSA(who turned out to be basically a triple agent for the Chinese but that's another story... Later on she gave birth to two of my 'kids') were hunted through a forest with soldiers on these as we made our way towards the sea plane that had come to pick us up. Soviets' design was much smaller and made less noise.
These things have existed long ago, along with the flying platforms, the flying jeep, and even upside down blenders the US army and private individuals had back 1/2 a century ago. With technology we presently have we can do a lot better than that and I am not talking about the typical up-scaled "unsafe" quad-copters many people have done with off the shelf components, but a clean elegant ultra-lightweight and efficient flying machine.
You are source of inspiration. Love your work. Really nice.
Vielen Dank,😉🚀

put the gyroscope in balance ... and lighten the structure .. or increase the power ..
Thank you for making this! What is the empty weight? and do you think its because it was too heavy that wasnt able to be stabilised by weightshift?
The Hiller platform had two 40 hp nelson engines that's a 65 hp rotax I believe you got there.
You need two engines one problem and build it with lightweight materials such as Plastics and aluminum

Bro used a gym fan from hardware store
nice work keep going you'll get it.

you're a brave lad! My uncle flew that thing several times...
Soy su fan pero deseo ayudarle
Excellent attempt!

been there, done that
Make it out of lightweight plastic
Funny and Entertaining! I guess you can always make salad with it!
Le faltan huevos a esas revoluciones por minuto
Muy lindo para cortar pasto 😀
Give go on guy, not to be exhousted
How do you fabricate the duct?
It look like a jetski engine, how did you keep it from over heating?
Why not rotary engine more power for the size?
Q lastima estuviera ahí yo para asesorarlo
Такие леталки были созданны в США в 1950х гг. И летали!
It’s too heavy , it can’t lift
Le falta rrebomuciones y una buena aspa osea elise mejor
Very good
The wieght of that must be a lot that's 18 ft of ducting going round the craft......need more Horse power.
Man if that cannot fly use it then for grass cut hahahahah (music is haram btw)
😄😄😄👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘

Desanima. Nao amigo se esse negocio nao voar, voces Ganhou um cortador de gramas gigante, somente abaixar as helices..
It doesn’t fly like the original
(Vale ''callampa'' )
Bau doch gleich ein Hovercraft
Isso aí é apenas uma cópia FAKE. A verdadeira, bem antiga, funciona.

replace that shity motorcycle engine with a electric motor
