What are the Ezycopter advantages?
On January 18, 2005, an EzyCopter demonstrator was successfully flown with a computer on board while remotely controlled by our pilot. The EzyCopter unmanned prototype made its maiden flight with data collected confirming that personal VTOL flying can become a reality at an affordable cost. This possibility is partly attributed to technical advances in helicopter design technologies over the past 50 years, and partly attributed to simplifying these technologies for an innovative Coaxial Drive System (CDS) to achieve a technical breakthrough in personal helicopter design. The EzyCopter is the worlds first coaxial helicopter equipped with twin engines, twin articulated rotors wih four rotor blades, with integrated cyclic/collective rotor controls. This torque-free concept is different, mechanically, from other single or coaxial rotor designs. A tail rotor designed in a conventional helicopter is a necessary device vital for helicopter flight. It counteracts the torque created by the main
