Hello Leonid.

Thank you for sharing.

Best wishes.

Rather:

"Handmade helicopter"

...even better...

;)

(They probably wanted to say home made)

Interesting machine thou.
No HS , but certainly CTL.

I have nothing to do with this one. I just like the look of it.

Does not have any H-Stab. Good looking rotorhead with collective.

As they posted sometime before, this machine is capable of doing JTOs.

Leonid, the most interesting part of that video is the use of the collective to land vertically. I've never seen video of a gyro with collective use it for landing.

The "vertical takeoff" looked weak. Perhaps it lacks an adequate prerotator.

does it land using collective pitch?

I didn't see a vertical take-off or collective being used to land.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing.
