Gen Corporation, the company employee Yasutoshi Yokoyama flies in the air by GEN H-4, a compact single-seater helicopter developed by Gen Corporation, during its test flight in Matsumoto in central Japan's Nagano Prefecture.
Yanagisawa developed the GEN H-4 helicopter - with rotors, a chair, footrest and handle bar - in the late 1990s.
Yanagisawa's helicopter is the smallest model in the world in terms of weight and its rotor length of 3.9 metres.
The GEN H-4 has two rotors turning in opposite directions to maintain stability, and four engines that enables a 30-minute flight with a top speed of about 56 miles per hour.
The helicopter has two identical rotors that turn in opposite directions making the need for a tail rotor obsolete. Each rotor counteracts the others torque keeping the helicopter free of any unwanted spin.
Controlling the GEN H-4 is very easy.If you wanted to go forward, you would pull the control bar toward you. If you want to go to the right, you would move it to left, and want to go left, move it to right. Of course you can reverse the helicopter. you only have to push it forward. The rise and descent are controlled by the throttle. If you push the throttle lever, GEN H-4 goes up, you let it, GEN H-4 goes down. If you wanted to turn to the right or left, you would push yaw-control-switch by right hand.
The entire rotor head is supported on a gimbal, which is slanted towards the direction of travel by the control bar. The pilot can therefore change their direction by shifting their weight.
It has four twin cylinder engines and can remain in the air even if two of the engines of malfunction. However, they have attached a parachute above the mast just in case....
Da Vinci designed what is thought to be the first vertical flight machine, "an aerial screw," in the 1480s, according to Italy's National Museum of Science and Technology.
Yanagisawa, who was named after Hiraga Gennai, an inventor during the Edo period (1603-1867), by his father, became hooked on making helicopters after turning 50.
The first prototype he created in 1995 hovered several centimeters above the ground for just a few seconds, but after poring over books and other materials, including some 50 years old, he managed to solve the technical problems that had been hindering his flight.
Yanagisawa's initial motivation for his creation was to develop an unmanned helicopter for spraying pesticide.
Yanagisawa has sold five GEN H-4s in Japan and two in the U.S. for recreational use. The helicopters sell for about $57,140.

IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO TEST YOUR EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT SURROUNDED BY POWER LINES..........
Go deadly dangerous or GO HOME!
chpnlzt rahulkamer
chpnlzt yes I like that to
chpnlzt It doesn't say anywhere he is testing it, why not demonstrating ? What did you accomplish lately? You seem like the kind of person who always sees the negative of things, a trait of losers who never complete something.
Yep, and it is not a test anymore
japanese product are the best all over the world. they no compromise on quality and standards. greetings from pakistan
I hope these will one day be mass produced, would be really handy to own a mini chopper!
It would be really scary if one guy got to close to another, clipping off the rotors. Then, that would mean instant death!
Gilbert Arciniega
the same when you're driving a car and other car will come to close to you with speed for example 160 km/h
Both of you have fair points.
jezus22 But, with a heli, you are guaranteed death when the clipped rotored heli falls. But with a car, it is not likely at all compared to heli to die! lol
Gilbert Arciniega Actually, if you have a chute or you're low to the ground then it'd not be that likely to die.
GO GO INSPECTOR GADGET!
Need more Video of it maneuvering around... Fly the damn thing like a Helicopter!
Only a bicycle helmet?! I'd be wearing full motorcycle gear, under a layer of combat armor!
I guess you don't do this kinda thing without some spare balls :)
Mine was the early model with 1 cup holder. You can get the latest that come with 2 cupholders and an extra one for mugs.
That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen, and if I win the lottery, after I take care of the important things such as family and our future, I will splurge and buy myself one of these. Absolute genius, Mr. Yanagisawa! And 75 years old, my hat is off to you, my friend.
Everyone will need this in case of zombie apocalypse.
Flyng Zombies
Yeah so everybody can crash into eachother or run outta gas and have their crippled corpses eaten lmao
They need an emergency brake on the rotors so if it stalls you can completely stop the blade motion and bail without them cutting you up, and then deploy a parachute.
You guys obviously didn't read the description
Ahh, I see it now. It seems like a lot could go wrong with a helicopter mounted parachute deployment system though. I'd personally rather hit a hand brake and bail ; )
I have heard of someone who had the idea of having a "parachute" on all aircraft, particularly small airplanes, in case the aircraft has problems, instead of them crashing down to ground and burning. The parachute would "deploy" and float down.
Yea, I thought of that back in 1999, and thought I was the first, but a few years ago I discovered its use on some small planes and did a little research; turns out the idea has been around for some 3 decades. Of course, people severely ridiculed me when I told them of my idea....yet there it is, clearly functional on some aircraft.

Great kit. Always helps to fly right next to power lines. Makes the helicopter have more super power long time!
flawless executed!
Cool! Can you buy the kit through Amazon?
i can imagine my self on one of these and ride it to school... hahhaha...
Kind of cool that you test it right near some massive power lines! :)
If this aircraft can meet these conditions, it will be very popular.
1. Automatic takeoff, cruise, and landing and has a carriage that wraps the passenger.
2. Be safe enough, make passengers and onlookers feel safe.
3.There are enough airports and efficient and precise air control systems when the sky is full of such aircraft.
4. Noise can't wake a sleeping person.
5. Better economy than sedans.
Hopefully one day our daily transportation will be planes instead of cars.
Use it as Emergence escape
He flew very high and then crash! When asked why, he replied, it got very cold, so I switch off the big fan on top!!!
very nice!!!

Bat Man ,
Bat Man Hello friend
That is very nice mashin
Q. I am not a pilot
Cudos on your invention...Great presentation.. Thank You! Gordon
amazing, well done Mr Gen
2:45 when fashion kills the product... lol
Smart Japanese.
could you imagine going to work in this every day? skipping all the traffic and the lights! not to mention you would be wide awake by the time you got to work!
Wicked video ... That would freak me out...
I was feeling that song haha
User Warning - Stay away from Power Lines or fly under it.
REPORTER: so what are you going to do now
INVENTOR: we are thinking of flying to the sun
REPORTER: arnt you afraid of how hot it will be?
INVENTOR: no because we plan to fly at night
I like the coaxial real heli fact. Amazing.
I love the tiny plastic shield that's gonna protect you when the engines explode!
its there to keep the rotor wash off of you
Crap Music.
this is awesome friend
nice work !!!
the framerate was absolutely perfect with those props :)
a master piece again for secret fast military operations
Only if you enemy is deaf.
I feel very enthusiastic for this formula. It is the actual true Microlight Helicopter. Very highly mastered by this enginer Adeyeto .
you are right! thanks for pointing it out.
Hi, great helicopter, I wonder what *actual* maximum take off weight (MTOW) and power output is?
Your website states 160 kg MTOW with 40 hp total, other sources claim 220 kg at 40 hp max and here it says about 300 kg MTOW at 80 hp?
Please explain, thanks!
By the time I am 50, I expect everyone to have one. No longer will drivers license be the thing you get when you turn 16, but helicopter license.
Excellent idea...! ! !
cool for dropping dope right over the borders
This is so cool; start selling them and I'll be a buyer for sure.
Awesome! I want one!
so, from forntpage to longboarding videos to blacksmiting to this, RUclips is really fascinating.
Amazing!! I want to try!
AWESOME!!
Love it keep making cool stuff people.
Awesome!
Revolutionary control mechanism. The collective is operated by rotating the hand grip, the chain plate by moving the handle bars and the yaw by turning the handle bars similar to a bike.
Thank you
Pretty cool!
thats awesome!!!!
Now that is awesome, and gee many could escape any dangers with some thing like that as well travel to and from work. Awesome work of art :-)
that's why there are 3 other extended versions of this video without music!! is it so hard to see the links?
excellent technical application
EXCELLENT!! Very nice VERY NICE !!!
omg I love this!
Brilliant!!!
Yes I want to see it again
WOW! THAT looks like Jackie Chan! It is right? HEY JACKIE! I love your movies and stunts man! Great chopper!
Will there ever be a chance that I can see one of these in person?
MIND-BLOWING HOW U DO?
I want this...I want this NOW! Hope one day such thing will be as ordinary as car is
I'd like to see it in motion a little more, and maybe a helmet cam view. I'd also like to see a fuel gauge (I hate guessing at a little detail like usable fuel), and an altimeter. A protective canopy is a must too!! Great idea, the future is looking brighter!
Jeez, thats cool, i want one!!!
I hope people will be travelling to work with things like this in the future.
It's an effect called aliasing. Basically, the blades are turning faster than the frame rate of the camera (how many times per second it takes a picture). The result is that each time the camera takes a picture of the blades, they've already spun around a few times. Aliasing is also the same reason that when you watch a film or an animation, you see continuous movement, rather than a series of stop-start images.
Our company has been focusing on developing and selling new products for more than 10 years. I'm a senior researcher at Heimkeeper Co., Ltd.Our company has an idea to reduce propeller noise and vibration of helicopters and drones. We're done with the experiment.We have applied for a utility model and a patent As a result of several experiments with small propellers, the current noise and vibration reduction effect is about 30%.The realization process of this idea is not complicated and simple, but the effect is considered to be a great and innovative invention.Looking forward good news from you soon
Persistence of vision is not a myth. It's what allows you to see frames in a video as though they were animated.
actually @Kenneth Maxie is kind of right.. the blades are spinning fast.. but the frequency of the rotation of the blades is close to that of the video camera.. that is why the blades look like they are spinning slowly.. some times the blades even appear to be motionless when the frequencies match ! :)
It would take a brave.. brave man to fly a chair pulled up by giant blades.. bravo sir
Hey, GI Joe wants their vehicle back! I like the illusion from the frames per second of the camera making it look like the rotor is barely turning.
Am i the only one who imagined him getting roasted between those electric lines after the footage cuts off?
You are so right!
I LOVE it and i want one!
bet this is great for the supermarket run, and commuting through NYC to the office
I think I would want to figure out how to fit one of those ballistic parachutes they use on ultralights onto this. Perhaps above the rotors on the central hub...
Now i know what i want for XMAS
Now THAT is totally wonderful. Hard to believe it is so stable. How does it perform in winds?!! It looks like a toy but it's amazing. It could even be used to evacuate tall buildings! Well, if properly organized!! It looks easy to fly too - is it?
its amazing....
Génial ce systéme !!
dude, the blades are spinning at a rate close to the shutter speed of the camera therefore it appears as though they aren't moving fast. It's the same effect you get when you watch the rotors of a helicopter as they start up, eventually it appears as though they begin moving in the opposite direction, that's because they are spinning at a rate faster than the 12 FPS the human eye can process and you actually begin seeing the blade at its new position, but not until after almost a full rotation
And you tested it near the electrical cables ! so smart.............
love it imagine a miniature plane really light that you stand on
Fantastic.!!
amazing!!!
Questa si che è un'invenzione geniale !!
sounds cool indeed!
Sweet!
Confieso que este helicóptero me fascina, excelente idea.
this fabulous
awesome
i would use this every day of my life.
It is a project that has a great imagination and is and in good design I hope a great future for its creator my congratulations to the designer from Spain
Go Go Gadget....hell yeah!!
great!!
OMG THE PROPELLERS ARENT MOVING! magic
cool engineering
Whats that background music?? any links for downloading that? its nice! And your machine is a real beauty.!
thanks
That helmet will surely save him from a crash!
That's how he steers and turns the machine. The rotors change speed which transfers some energy to the bottom part of the vehicle, turning it.
Freaky place to test a prototype chopper, with all the cables, but it looks awesome. Hope we can buy it some day.
