First helicopter (Remember those days?)

As far as me, I bought a Rotorway Scorpion One single seat helicopter
for a song and am in the process of restoring it. It looks just like
the scorpion 133 only thinner.

I saw one at an auto show, seems about 40 years ago. Evinrude motor, right?


No no no, its only been about 35 years and is a about a decade or two
younger than the brantly - only better looking. Yes, it uses a 110 HP
evinrude. In those days, the evinrude was the best choice for a
vertically running engine. I'm not so crazy about it being 2-cycle,
but it is and it works. It will also fly when I am done with it.
