Who knows what became those coaxial (Dennis Fetters, may be!?)???
And what are the intentions of Cicare about them???

THOSE WERE TEST SUBJECTS ONLY NO PRODUCTION
Cicare had his designs taken, He's a great designer.
As for the coaxal stuff they mostlyall use standard collective & cyclic controls - Yaw is reversed unless a special null cam is used or tip break servos.
Fixed pitch with mast tilting in the cheaper 'kits' are falling bowling balls with a seat when the engine stops.
All a coax does is add to the costs of extra main rotor blades - controls & headaches - The standard single main & tail systems do better.
I'll take a tandem Chinook over a Kamov coax any day. and a standard Hughes twice on the Weekend.
