Simply a link for VTOL and similar rotorcraft, but mostly unproven and proven designs with a particular interest in morphing aero-structures and Human-machine interface.

Finally got the 2nd prototype helicopter of my patent up and flying; no swashplate; planform morphing airframe rotor disc control. I still need to tweak the yaw control and increase the surface area of the yaw paddle. I added a small washer w/ some teflon grease between the reduction gears, but it may be causing a little friction, slowing one of the mast down and causing excessive yaw, but it can be negated with additional yaw control input to counter it. More tweaking and I can move outdoors now. Now to get the boom and pod single mast platform flying.
