[@jean-claudegagnon7918]

Merci de nous faire partager ces super video tres aprecier.

[@idontneednostinkingchannel6848]

Had to "LIKE" - I mean what's not to like here except I wish I was one of these folks.. ha! Fun to watch! thanks for posting.

[@BambangSuryono]

Really good construction, ideally firm and balance

[@dubveeboyz9082]

AH Hughes 500D N86ST. At that time belonged to a guy who lived near me Michael Trickett. Used to see that bird all the time.

[@csmythe8]

Super nice guy and talented craftsman. He has done several ground up restorations on different helicopters.

[@ExtremeRecluse]

Got to fly a loach once. A national guard unit did there two weeks AT at Ft Stewart, GA. My commander let me go up with an IP. That is an amazingly agile aircraft.

[@whitehedr]

Now that is a Fun Fly to the Nth degree. That looks like a lot of fun! ROG

[@MrBen527]

Awesome vid

[@csmythe8]

Really fun helicopter gathering

[@conexn]

Now I know what rich helicopter pilots do for fun... Must be nice and a lot of fun.

[@csmythe8]

Some of the Helicycle owners are truck drivers. Great that people who are not zillionaires can afford to build and fly a turbine helicopter.

[@csmythe8]

Thanks for sharing, you have a long Rotorway history. There are Scorpion's for sale often with the 162F engine for 25-30K USD. Good price for a solid 2 seat helicopter

[@usivio980]

Awwwww the So Cal state bird. LA County Sheriff's Dept. Hughes 500.

[@lepompier132]

Depending on the generation of the helicopter, they are great machines. Last i've know of they worked on a version 2009 that had a Rolls-Royce turbine the Eagle300T and they have the A600 Talon an upgrade from the Exec.

[@ExtremeRecluse]

During flight school at Ft Rucker during primary, I was the first to hover unassisted. It is all the other stuff besides wiggling the sticks that got me into a simple bind.

[@csmythe8]

Glad you like it..This fly-in is an incredible event with so many different helos....

[@ExtremeRecluse]

I recall when an Air National Guard unit came through Wright Army Airfield in Ft Stewart, GA. I asked my commander if I could take a ride in the 500 loach. He OKed the flight so long as the PIC was an instructor pilot. All helicopters are about the same. It is sort of like the 300 but on steroids. I asked the IP to show me what it could do without scaring me shitless. So, with a 1/4 tank of gas and only two on board, he pulled in an arm full of collective. We instantly became a vertical rocket ship up to 1000 agl in about 10 seconds

[@mensak10]

Dios mio de mi vida !! ...Yo quiero uno pequeño de esos para mi uso particular ...uauuu

[@joseppi2219]

I love all your videos! I will make it to this meet in the next couple years! Mark my words!

[@pheenix42]

Thank you very much for including footage of the Scorpion Too...when I was a teenage boy, I wanted one of those SO much! And, do you know how much I envy you folks? Being a guy who works an hourly wage, I don't think I'll ever be able to afford the training for even a basic helo rating...

[@bionictrucker1]

Great video! Love all the helicopters! In all the "single place" birds ever built, I think the "Helecycle" is my favorite lil bird! I hope to own one some day & learn to fly some day! I just wannuh be a helo pilot so bad I can't hardly stand it! Fly safe out there, ya'll!

[@batkizoltan]

Very Nice! Wonderful MD, Bell helicopter! Thanks

[@joseppi2219]

What advantage would the helicycle have with the Yamaha 4 Stroke in it? Just Fuel consumption?? any Power Difference? very Interesting that one would opt for a Piston over a Turbine...

[@csmythe8]

I have flown in a Rotorway and they handle very nice. Easier than R22. Since they are Experimental, you can't fly with the confidence that an R22 gives you. Most Rotorway owners don't fly in areas without easy auto-rotation options. Opinions vary quite a bit.

[@ExtremeRecluse]

Look at those belts!!!

[@Xaxaxa1927]

Please tell us which engine type is used and the principle of

[@gerekevans]

Je sais que je l'aime à beaucoup.

[@csmythe8]

glad you like it...take care

[@daughtersfather]

What th... 00:50 - I was just watching that RC chopper, but as much as he tried the bloke couldn't get in it...then i saw Barry Bonds and suddenly the little chopper could really fly.

[@csmythe8]

@stealthmonkey13 Thanks - Yes it will be strange to not be able to go next year. Its a highlight of the summer.

[@marcofiler]

cara qui da hora ainda quero ter um desses

[@ExtremeRecluse]

Went on to fly in three different units. 2 medevac and one air assault. About 2200 hours

[@Saichenyang]

If I'm a rich man, I'd love to have one so I could take it and go fishing.

[@MrJoshnewkirk]

Great video. What do you think of the RotorWay ships? They look pretty slick but don't know much about them and their quality.

[@Biker4x4]

I love it! thanks for sharing.

[@hwilliambbennett805]

I'm so much in love with these machine. How much one cost price from Older. to the newest

[@hwilliambbennett805]

how much one of helicopter cost?$

[@mdejong007]

google

[@elias8012]

and how match is one of this cost?

[@MachTucker737]

What is the orange one at 22:00? I've been wanting one of these for a while.

[@Powershotknecht]

Great!

[@csmythe8]

@joseppi2219 Glad you enjoy. He will not hold the event next year to take a break. It might take place in 2013.

[@lololololololololololololol338]

Needs the music from "Apocalypse Now". Just for fun!

[@mickcarson8504]

At 20:35, isn't that the French Alouette? So many nice helicopters...

[@csmythe8]

Its a beautifully restored Bell 47. Owned by a guy who built an award winning Rotorway.

[@muhammadsajjad2484]

+csmythe8 ggy

[@นิมิตรสมสวย]

ชอบครับหยากได้

[@csmythe8]

I took an hour of instruction in that Brantly and they fly great!! 70-80K can get a used Brantly which is the cheapest by far for a certified helo.. Not the prettiest, but at least you're flying....

[@archon808]

I would not get into a real helicopter that looks exactly like a RC hobby helicopter

[@csmythe8]

Its a Helicycle...just google helicycle and it will take you to the Helicycle website

[@wearetravellors5097]

very nice.

[@csmythe8]

all languages welcome, google translate does the trick. glad you liked it...

[@VINICIUSDESABUGOSA]

....ricos pobres brinando! Que legal!

[@khalidbinswidan138]

if I want to buy one how much it cost

[@csmythe8]

@joseppi2219 I think the main advantages would be better fuel consumption, the auto fuel itself is cheaper, and better long term supply of engines parts since there is a limited supply of Solar turbines. I don't know about the power difference or if he continued with the Yamaha 4 stroke long term..

[@alamgirmondal6456]

very nice

[@csmythe8]

if you want to buy the kit and build it yourself, it is $39,800... Helicycles that are already built are for sale for much more....some are for sale on the website kitcopterconsult. which you can find on google

[@КуценкоОлександр-ф2ф]

отлично!!

[@conexn]

If you want to see what the poor Heli pilots do check out the RC section under RC Helicopters...

[@ExtremeRecluse]

1000 moving parts trying to comingle. I was not a very good pilot. My instructor told me " You sure know how to fly the fuck out of this thing, It is a shame you can't think and fly at the same time."

[@arkansaswookie]

Good lord that's funny. So what happened? Did you finally learn to fly?

[@csmythe8]

glad you enjoy

[@KIDTAKO]

NEVERMIND... "Helicycle" 13:34 What make is this?

[@privategun]

[@HunterXray]

3:35 Bell LongRanger if I'm not mistaken.
