Inspired by:
Russian Hind D
helicopters seen in Patlabor 2
NOTAR helicopters
AH-1 Cobra (sorta...)

The "Loiterer" utilizes [1] NOTAR technology, therefore it needs no tail • rotor.
Also, it DOES have retractable landing gear. Just wanted to get those two
things staight... ;-)


I really like the landing gear. Nice and simple. Do you have a problem with
them not holding up the weight very well? If not, I'll have to borrow the
design for future reference...

Thanks Duane! Yes, the landing works well, IF you have some sort of "stopping"
point for it. The front pair of legs rest on an inverted wedge, while the
others just sorta stay in the back. The whole helicopter balances nicely, so
the back pair of legs don't have much pressure applied to them.

Oh, and feel free to use (and modify) this design! ;-)


Enjoy!
