Dude! You got that wrong, omg! It is called pallopter.... or is it palletopter? Damn :) I guess "flying euro pallet twin rotor system prototype" or something like that is just too long :D
@@Collateralcoffee "flying euro pallet twin rotor system prototype" is probably the correct name for this in german, but all mashed together into one new glorious word.
I think that the shutter speed makes it look like a faked video. If it fake they did an amazing job of keeping the speed of the gears driving the rotors at a much higher speed. Awesome video loved it!
_How can it fly with blades moving that slow?_ Or _How can that wagon go forward with its wheels going backwards?_ Yeah, gotta love that wagon wheel effect!
Its certainly got good lift capability, as that pallet assembly is probably 15 to 20 kilos. Also, it seemed extremely stable (not sure if a gyro was used 🤔). Looking forward to seeing it with a beautiful scale body on it. Great work guys 👏
That was a good design when "Operation Paperclip" benefctor Anton Flettner came up with it for Kaman Aircraft Co. shortly after WW II. It was so easy to fly, the company used to say (and prove) "a housewife could fly it with only an hour's training." The company produced some that were used by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and they were working on an unmanned version because of its heavy lift capability.
@@luke_skywanker7643 to be a bit more precise, he came up with the design a bit earlier, with the Flettner Fl 282 Kolibri (ua-cam.com/video/vKEBu4EcxGw/v-deo.html ) for the Reichsmarine.
He sure as heck did! I didn't know anything about "The Hummingbird" until I looked up FL 282, which you put in your comment. I'm really surprised that Flettner's concept and experimentaion on the design was actually pre-WW II.
I love how this is all about showing the fascinating subject and not about somebody inflicting their artiste-wannabe video production skillz on us - yay!
He was too close from the safety point taking into account that this is a prototype who also has long blades. If one hits the ground.. it would be a matter of luck after that point. Still. impressive project.. I like it.
The engineering is impressive, but I’m more impressed with the confidence of his own work, to be standing with his face basically in the blades. It didn’t seem like it, but if ANYTHING was off, it would have went bad fast and furiously
@@02ennuu-zg5tb It's called a Flettner rotor, and was invented in the Thirties by a German. There've been real, flying, people-carrying helicopters built with that design for decades - mostly by the Kaman Co. They're not fast, but they're very controllable, and have been used for medevac in the Vietnam War and for construction. They seem to be reasonably safe for a helicopter. Or do you mean just this one version here, with this specific angle and spacing of the rotors?

I know it's a tested technology, but i can't stop imagining a small misalignment, a handful of dust, a wearout or whatnot will cause one rotor to slow down and they collide.
I am absolutely shocked by stability in flight. That's rock solid. They say helicopters are always 3 seconds from crashing, due to innate instability of the flight method, but here? Noooope!
That's great to see! Where was this filmed? In Bloomfield CT USA you'll often see the K-MAX flying around, as well as the two seater Huskie (aka Yellow School Bus) which I believe is used for training.

Pretty awesome palletcopter

That’s certainly an inexpensive test bed to prove the concept. Well done.
Very impressive and looked amazing during flight
Incredible that the blades almost stationary and still can fly.
🤣
Физику в школе учить надо было. 🤣Лопасти крутятся как сумасшедшие. Это стробоскоптческий эффект.
Your levity is great.
Kinda like how wagons move forward even though the wheels turn backwards!
Technology is amazing isn’t it
I love how this is all about showing the fascinating subject and not about somebody inflicting their artiste-wannabe video production skillz on us - yay!
What a beautiful piece of machinery. Nice work.
great camera work, I thought it should be up by now, I didnt realise it was lifting the pallet
All hail the pallet copter! 😎
Pretty darned impressive.
Very impressive.
thats not messing about , well done.
Absolutely awesome 👌 totally loved this video 👍
Impressive!
Well done mate Helis are very hard to fly at the best of times
All that weight it's lifting is impressive.
that's awesome! If I fly this I would be afraid that one of the blades breaks and shoots in my face :D

Proof that things that should not fly *_CAN FLY!!!_*
Well done
Outstanding
Awesome
This rotor design has been done b4, many years ago, it's not actually new.
Groovy man ..
Is that a flying piece of wood?!
Yes.
Nice !
Wow
Сикорский, Миль и Камов не догадались палет в воздух запустить😂
Well done. What’s it’s external max gross?
I want to know how this way of flying controls the direction and speed of movement. Can anyone explain the principle?
Wait till it get a pusher prop and goes into collective only autogyro mode.
❤❤❤❤❤
You should add chairs or something...
Okay, it's flying in ground effect. Impress me and take it up to 40 ft.
Instead of the K-Max, make the WW2 ORIGINAL, the Flettner 282!
An assault pallet
Amazon is gonna get sued, this will cut your head off when you reach for your package.😂🤣
Ну и что такого! У нас баба Яга в ступе летает стабильно.
Absolutely nothing new here. all been done before.
I thought that was just a test bench and a run up. Did not expect the palet to take off lol.
Same. I thought I was just going to see the mechanism tested. It was a fun surprise to see the test stand take off.
Real seat of the pants testing. No fancy fuselage or unnecessary fruit clogging up the project. Just the essentials -well done!
Yup, just an essential wooden pallet and few other essential peace of wood :-D Can't do a proper test without a wooden pallet. ;-)
Fruit??😂
Just imagine how much it could lift if the blades did more than 5 rpm.
Great hilarious observation, have you tried standup?
@@peterkasala2088 your mom said I should be a stud
@@DS-xg9kfshe meant in a wall.
Damn, that beastie gets a lot of lift for how slow those them blades are a spinin.
Yes, I'm joking. 😅

Confident recklessness.
agree
I was really hoping they would pan out and the flyer would be behind a barrier... Not just standing 10 feet away holy sheet.
Or he's put in his due diligence engineering it 🤨

We could use that for Dockfighters the Ale Wars if that thing can transport a box of beer ;-)
I love how the camera frame rate makes the rotors look so smooth and graceful. A cool project, well done!
Pallet technology has come far.
It's mesmerizing when the frame rate synchs with the rotors.
При чем тут выдержка??? Трава шевелится и машина едет нормально!
Это дело в частоте кадров!
Учите матчасть уважаемые...
Contrarotating intersecting rotor blades, what could possibly go wrong?
People out in the world making palletcopters. What am i even doing with my life.
If you can get it to fly upside down you’ve got the makings of an airborne lawn mower there!
awesome
my pallet jack only goes up about four inches..

Impossible mate. Those rotors are timed.
@@jamesbarratt593 yes. Until they're not.
@@jamesbarratt593 so if i get it right, the rotors are connected with some sturdy gears. Ok, that's relieving.
@@MrPilotStunts no you get it wrong. Theres chewing gum and a used half full condom there. Its the physics of it which keeps the rotors apart. 😀
@@jamesbarratt593 that's even better than i thought!
That rotor mechanism is beautiful.

take that you one bladed helicopters.

This project is great. What are you going to do with it?
the mechanics will be placed in a K-MAX model
Elon will con a bunch of schmucks out of millions with it, and never deliver it.
free haircuts, take a seat on the pallet
This is cool! I do have a question though, how does it maintain lift with the propellers moving so slowly? 😊😊😊
it's just the optical effect of the camera...
It can pick up some weight
Just get som RPGs on there 🤭
Pallet is cool. Needs a crate.
That's great to see! Where was this filmed? In Bloomfield CT USA you'll often see the K-MAX flying around, as well as the two seater Huskie (aka Yellow School Bus) which I believe is used for training.
It was filmed in Switzerland, K-MAX is often seen here too, but not Huskie!
ok, I absolutely didnt expect it to take off including the pallet, thought it was just a starting platform :O
Flying pallet, class.
Such primitive beasts we are. Even if there were life outside our planet (which there isn't) why would they visit us? lol
I remember the Kaman Saver!
Looks cheap to buy but doesnt carry many passengers

It can lift a pallet?? Really impressive! I thought it was a stationary test at first 😂 What is the settup/engine on that little flying beast?
It's a 7.5kw electric motor by Kontronik.
It is one of those occasions when the test bench flew away !!
DANG ... I think you got all of us.
and congratulations on an amazing poject
what awesome shit
Amazing!!!!
God created simple life...man's agenda has always been to complicate it.😂 good engineering though.
Don't tell me this is a totally custom build??? That rotor config solves so many problems. Also that pallet was probably blocking 20% of the thrust!
Nice Work Sir.
If you can add a Pusher Prop.
Then you will have best of both worlds.
I want one
Well done!
Impressed
Mesmerizing. Didn't expect the takeoff. Thought it was just a thrust test.
I was watching this without sound and thought the rotors had slowed down. Was pretty surprised when it just lifted off!
AWESOME

Please respect how dangerous Heli's like this are I'm staring at a nitro raptor 50.. And started with the Piccolo pro's were new.
I don't care how much you trust your creation and technology, you don't stand that close to flying blades rotaing at speeds approaching the speed of light.
How do you achieve directional control? You can't vary the rotor speed and the blades don't look like you can vary the pitch.
All drones should be sychrocopters. Their weight/lift ratio is higher no?
How can it fly when the blades are moving so slow?
(I know what it is just making a joke, if you read this far.)
Impressive! The Kaman K-Max uses servo flaps to change the pitch of the rotor blades. They are not present in this creation.
Exact...but in this case is not so important...seen the real at how do it made...the cable system for the swash plates mixers is very impressive
Cool
