Abstract

This is about the greatest possible simplification of the helicopter's mechanism and partially that of the airplane's, primarily for recreational use. A basic point is that nearly all of the flying process is accomplished through bodily movements (something that requires training), and by use of the engine's throttle. The engine should be, at experimental level, like the ones used in speedboats, or like the one that uses low horsepower enough to lift about 100 kilos, if one can be found, sold in commercial flight engines. A propeller can be found from helicopter manufacturers, possibly using a helicopter's tail propeller, or the propeller of small airplanes. The whole construction is done by using aluminium pipes of suitable diameter.
