@@aleksandarbrankovic3482 It depends on what the total weight is, but 35mm should be good . The diameter of mine is 1.5” or 38.1mm

@jonb9428 Thanks.. :)

@@aleksandarbrankovic3482 . Hi, from level it will tilt 14 degrees in any direction, or 28 total from full forward to full back.

@jonb9428 Thanks....

I meant "at" Valley View.

Oh, this is Fred Casey not Judy.

@@judycasey4603 I would like to, but unfortunately I will be working. Hopefully it will be a good turnout. I talked to a couple people who plan to be there.

The engine is a Subaru EJ257 with modified SOHC heads and intake. The main gearbox is a front differential from a 97 Chevrolet 4x4, modified internally to run at 90 degrees offset.

Thanks or the comment, I give rides to anyone who wants to go. Hopefully I can give someone some fond memories that they can talk about years later. Send me a message if you are ever in East Texas.

@@jonb9428 From Ohio I appreciate it..from this 'heli-stiudent' w 25 hrs (mostly R22)...it my hope to get my licsense some day.

Sure, the main transmission is a modified front differential from a GM 1500 4x4. The tail gearbox is a Superior series 100 1:1.4 speed increaser.

@@jonb9428 your main rotor system swash plate rotor head main rotor shaft is that stock road away if not where can I go to purchase these items also the intermediate gearbox for the tail rotor I believe it's like a 30 or 35 degree angle what kind of modifications were done to the Chevrolet differential where can I go to get this information to build this

@@markoneal1764 I machined the rotor system myself, using 7075 t6 aluminum and 4130 steel. I made the ring gear spool for the gearbox too, there is not one commercially available that I know of. I used two universal joints for the 25 degree upward angle on the tailboom. My email address is jonb9428@msn.com

Hi, Empty weight is 1460 pounds. I can fly with me (200pounds) and passenger (200pounds) plus 15 gallons of gas if the outside temperature is less than 70 degrees F. At 100 degrees F outside temperature it will barely lift me. My transmission and rotor system without blades weighs 180 pounds. Feel free to email me at jonb9428@msn.com

Thanks...

Yes sir, I thought I called and told you.

Lol, I did...9 years ago. And it’s “translational” not “transitional”.

Thank you. It is strong and smooth for a 62 year old Hiller.

In this video the engine is a Subaru EJ257 short block with 11.5:1 compression ratio. The heads and intake manifold are from a 2000 ej25 SOHC.

@@jonb9428 Could you share all the plans for this helicopter?

Yes, it is.

Hello, thanks. There are 4 2/3vp750 gates belts from the engine pulley to main transmission. Pulleys are 5” engine, 12.25” transmission, 4.5” idler. I made a spring loaded tensioner with a 1k lb 6” linear actuator for movement. My email address is jonb9428@msn.com

Thank you. I do still have it. Just rebuilt the motor to a 2.6l stroker. I have lots of videos I will see about editing a couple and uploading.

@@jonb9428 ill edit the videos if you want! the world needs more scorpion content

Sure old friend (GNR).

What would you like to know?

Thank you.

Thank you.

He said he enjoyed it. I picked him up at 7:30am so it was still cool and calm, just right for flying. We flew for about 45 minutes, when we got back I took his wife for her first helicopter ride too.

Thank you sir. The Hiller was built in 1959 and used as a trainer in the US Army. The experimental helicopter is my own design except for the cabin and seats.

Thanks

You will need to get your flight training in a certified helicopter because pilots that will train you in an experimental aircraft are harder to find. Are you thinking about building your own or buying one?

@@jonb9428 I was looking at buying a used 133 i saw online

Kurrupted Data If you want to talk about it send me your number and a good time to call. My email is jonb9428@msn.com

@@jonb9428 Okay, I sent u a email.

Hi my friend (high)

Yes it will fly with a passenger up to 200 pounds. Yes, a license is required to legally fly it since it is over the FAA minimum for an ultralight aircraft.

Lol, thanks Loulou.

Thanks, it is an old machine, 1959, but it still flies well just a little slow.

@@jonb9428 That's the key...still flies well.

This one is quite a bit different from the original scorpion.

@@jonb9428 you've inspired me to get another RW. I have a subaru to rebuild out of a outback I own. I'd be willing to pay you for how you did all this. Your dash looks great too. I plan to throw out the old dash and built a standard T console. I had to sell my first one during a divorce. I lost the house but won the dog so I won that little spat. Anyway, I'm an old army pilot that's just crazy enough to do something like this so I could use some help.

Tiger 181 My email is jonb9428@msn.com , send me your phone number and I will give you a call. I would be happy to help if I can.

@@jonb9428 hi man, can a any gear reduction transmission be used?.

Miclair Miclair The gear reduction needs to be suited to your machine. Too small and it won’t be able to handle the torque, too big and it will be too heavy.

Thanks Ken, I about have all the bugs worked out of it. I have 10 hours hovering it now. It is thirsty though it burns one gallon every three minutes (20gph) while hovering, twice the fuel burn of the Subaru. The engine is three times larger though.

@@jonb9428 Yeah, really liked the sound.

Isaiah Gove Sorry Isaih, I just saw your question. Yes I have worked on several experimental and certified helicopters.
