Schöffmann-Heli Project
Schöffmann-Heli Project
Hello Dave,
Yes, as soon as I have more research done and get under way I will start posting some pics and updates. CITA has been a GREAT help in all this. Without him, I'm not sure I personally would have been able to get things started here in Pennsylvania.
As CITA stated, with the Schöffmann-Heli ( I will name it that from here out as he is the designer - in respect for his work), this will be a very low altitude fun project. I plan on designing and building my machine around the same structure.
The real issues in construction will be the rotor hub (pictured). Although basic in design, I will contract someone to build this for me (
Any takers out there ??
I have also considered possibly using a powered paragliding engine in place of a Kart motor as I believe they will be a bit cheaper and I have experience in PPG.
