... Has anyone seen that AeroScooter? http://www.airscooter.com/ Kind of an interesting idea. So - they oversimplify the web site. "No license is required to fly . . . because it weighs less than 300 pounds . . ." But, it seems as though there are a few other restrictions than that! It looks kind of fun! Given that the airscooter has fixed pitch in the rotors, and no swash plates, I was just wondering what is the mechanism that makes it go forward, backwards or to the sides. I didn't find much detail about how that is accomplished in the website. Anyone knows? |
