Does the bet cover 1-bladed tail rotors? I believe the Hiller Hornet had one, but its main rotor was conventional.

I know of at least two more single rotor helicopters that flew.

Ben , tell your buddy he owes you at least $60 by now.

Tell him if he doesn't pay up right away we will find even more single rotor heli's .. :)

Bell built an experimental helicopter with one MR blade, the other side had a large counter weight. It was a modified Bell 47.
