LOW and FAST in the Mosquito Air Helicopter

I genuinely love how utterly ballsy Americans can be. This guy builds his own helicopter, takes off and test flies in Crocs (with a leg/knee in some kind of brace it appears), then lands under power lines on the pavement, naturally, because it's flat and close to the road, slows the blades with his bare hands and then uses a monowheel scooter to take his creation home over a major road intersection. I am speechless, and in utter admiration.

[@DRONEintheZONE]

With only a helmet for protection, in a tee shirt and shorts! Must have been what it felt like to be a Wright brother in the pioneering days of flight lol!

That's why he's wearing a brace. Are we certain he still has both legs?

[@jirislavicek9954]

Great thing is you can do all those things in the US. 👍 In most European countries you need some kind of licence / permit to fly microlights, powered paragliders, hang gliders even regular paragliders. There's a lot of bureaucracy with it.

My brother built one of these from a kit he ordered from Canada. He had never flown anything, never studied how to fly and had zero experience with piloting aircraft. He just decided he wanted to build one and fly it. I was certain he would kill himself and I was there the first time he took it up despite not even understanding how to fly it. His approach was " I hear its easy and I'll figure it out as I go" and he did exactly that! By the end of the day we were both flying the thing and it is indeed extremely simply to fly. Its so fun!

@@catzel1ps452 Those blades look fairly damn small. I wonder how much mass they have and how much energy they can actually retain without the engine. Without enough energy retention in the spinning blades there is no auto-rotation. Also, while I agree on the point of auto-rotation being an option present for fixed wing over rotary wing aircraft the fact is there are far more parts moving at high speed and under stress on a rotary wing than a fixed wing. The equates to far more things to go wrong so it kind of balances it out. It also only works if you are on the safe side of the dead man's curve.
