Hello fellow rotorheads!
I wanted to know what the maximum number of rotor blades a helo can have is. What are the overall differences in multi blade rotors? Considering lift required, drag, power available, aspect ratio, solidity ratio, tip speed and any other factors you feel important, and at the same time disregarding landing space available, parking space, maintenance etc. Want a purely aerodynamic opinion.
Any and all inputs are greatly appreciated!
