    As a machinist and mechanic there is some fascinating stuff going on (I just watched your rotor blade build video)
    When you don't have drill table clamped to column, the table will 'droop' by several thousandths of inch, (probably around 0.2mm or more, never measured mine in mm)
    Added to the inaccuracy of drill vice you are probably drilling holes not close perpendicular in components. (I've checked a few drill vices and found up to 1mm tilt in them)
    Also, when you have stainless steel and aluminium in contact with each other you will get pretty severe electrostatic (electrolytic?) corrosion.
    In my experience, Teflon paste is a real good barrier/insulator as it's pretty much inert. (I've been using plumbers paste about 30 years but bicycle Teflon grease is a bit better, designed for plastic components that 'ordinary' grease makes brittle))
    Don't use any form of copper grease as it makes things even worse. (I forget details but it's ion transfer thing)
    You may want to swap out the deep groove ball bearings for some thrust bearings as they will fail with as little as 90 pounds (40Kg?) side loading
    I've seen it happen on motorcycles when spacers are missing in as little as 100 miles. (although I have no idea of the tail rotor thrust?)
    There are several different types but a relatively cheap and easy to find double row thrust bearing is found on outer wheel hub on front wheel drive cars, something older from Japan or maybe older VW or Mini would probably be small enough to do the job 100% better than deep groove radial bearings with probably an unlimited service life as you will be putting far less power through it. (plus, washing out the grease and using a synthetic gear oil will provide better cooler lubrication)
    It would be a good idea to fit same or similar bearing under crown wheel as well although it will almost certainly need new bearing housings in both positions.
    Fitting breathers to sealed units may be a good idea to prevent leaks

    You put your parts into your vise without cleaning shavings out of the way and deburring them. Same thing on the lathe chuck. Your parts aren't running true in the lathe. You assemble the bearings into the housings with your hands covered with chips which fills the bearings with shavings. You need to work with a machinist mentor for a little while to learn basic machine operation. unless of course you have a death wish flying this craft. If so you are well on your way to success. I say this with great affection and a big hug like your favorite uncle or shop teacher. I admire your guts to try all of these skills just log a lot of hours close to the ground and listen to these gears and bearings carefully. Two thumbs up to you as a person and only one thumb down to what you show in this video.

  • @Ben-Dixey

    Good progress and nice videos. Something that may help when boring on the lathe, I notice you leave the boring bar out very long from the tool post. As a result you can see chatter in the finish, a general rule to follow is only have the bore bar sticking out from the tool post the bare minimum and maximum of 3x the diameter of the bore bar for standard bars and 5x for solid carbide bars. This will help the chatter problem. Cheers

    • @Ben-Dixey
      @Ben-Dixey 2 роки тому +1

      Looking forward to seeing how you tackle the blades. There is a Brazilian furia with videos on how he made the blades but with many rivets it isn't an ideal design.

    • @Ben-Dixey
      @Ben-Dixey 2 роки тому +1

      When you say point welded is that what I would call spot welded? Personally I wouldn't weld anything regarding blades, fatigue cracking would be the worry. Making the blades is certainly a challenge, and even more so without a suitable milling machine but it's still possible. My first set of blades I made would work but it's keeping the chord wise mass distribution at 25% which is hard. If you don't achieve this then collective forces can be a problem. The mosquito blades I like the most, cnc machined leading edge spar and single skin wrapped around and epoxied in place. Composite fx have spent a fortune in machinery to make them but I believe I could make them achieving a similar result with very little investment in tooling.

    • @santhanakumarimohan
      @santhanakumarimohan 2 роки тому

      Try building wooden blades. I made wooden blades with a steel spar in the front for CG balance similar to the ones used in BELL47. For an 8inch chord I ended up with 27% CG, they worked prity good and flew well. But making them is a labour intensive task. I can make them for you if you like.

    • @Ben-Dixey
      @Ben-Dixey 2 роки тому +1

      Wood is a great material for blades but the weight of the blade needs to be the same as the furia plans to make sure the centrifugal forces are the same.

    in angle grinder are similar gears and very hard grease that when gears spin, grease is all around casing, and gear are dry, so i diluted that grease with oil to become liquid, so you should do same or use some thick oil for gears, otherwise gears will wear very fast

    2. vuelvo a preguntar si no es obligatorio que el material de transmisión de movimientos debe ser aluminio? porque el acero es muy pesado

    Many problems whit this design... .
    Bad back lash resulta on noise , quick wear and prematura failure of gear box ....
    It Will not work ......
    Proper gear back lash is required.....

    • @lo2740

      if that was the only problem, the machining / tooling / assembly is shaddy, at best. Even if the design was proper it would seriously compromise everything. THis guy seems smart, i dont know how he doesnt learn proper machining / tooling / assembly technics and rules first.

I came across helicopter plans called Furi or something like that. I opened it up and let’s say the rotor head page, to me looked just like the parts you machined. Except it didn’t show the details of measurements needed to make those parts. Was that the helicopter yours is based on???
