Default Mechanics of Elevator Trim. In Detail.

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?

That you are 12, maybe 13.

LOL, I wish!


OK, 9 or may be 10?
