The notion of first principles, like some of the conservation laws,
seems to be lost on Le Chaud and others. He calls himself an engineer, but seems not very familiar with Newton, or concepts like energy density when talking about a prime mover, or. . . but why go on? Austin has its village idiot. I am reminded of a derivation that was given in JIR (J. Irreproducible Results, an outgrowth of the Worm Runners Digest -- points to anyone who knows what worm runners were) in which a series of equations were written, followed by a statement "Then magic happens", and then the desired result.

Yeah, and electric/electronic chopper that can sit in your backyard, taking up minimal space that you fly with a flick of a switch quietly so the old bag next door can't hear it over her vibrator. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the greater than an order of magnitude improvements in batteries necessary to do this. Going to hard to keep all that moving air quiet. I'm thinking contra-rotating multiple (bi-plane or triplane) helo blades for yaw control, and I'm still working on pitch...easy to do, but's what's best?? If it is so easy, why do few have it? It's in production. So was "Howard the Duck" and the Yugo. I'm also lookin' at an emergency chute that can pop off the top for a 1/2 assed decent, so we might eliminate pitch control on the blades, and make it cheaper and simpler, in case of failure, than having to do reverse auto gyroration. Deploying a chute through rotor blades is going to be interesting to say the least. It's patented. The chute is fired off the hub. Patents are meaningless as to the value of a concept. I bet we could form a team of fella's who could create a Limited Liabilty Corporation. That's how Boeing began, 21 guys as I recall. I'm sure you can find others that slept through high school science and haven't a clue. I'm ok with science, insight is needed. More like a set of eyeglasses. I think we should start a new thread and put this product together. What do you think? Ken S. Tucker That you are 12, maybe 13. LOL, I wish! OK, 9 or may be 10? -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
