This is the sort of thing that KZread is for. Not spoiled brats taking videos of themselves destroying luxury goods. Just ordinary, everyday human beings doing really cool things, which is really what life is about.

Very good comment! I agree 100%, thanks!

What an act of sheer genius. I love these people. Fearless and creative. What an amazing combination. I want to try it one day. Might go for a quad though. I am not as brave, smart or creative as this fellow.

283 People could not even dream about doing some thing like this! WELL DONE!

Excellent work. This is probably a maiden test flight otherwise he would fly it around. Anyone who bashes this is a fool. Most cannot even fly this type of helicopter, let alone build one from scratch. It takes outstanding skill to build and tune a scratch-built collective pitch helicopter. A++++

Agree, Airplanes are much easier objects almost anyone can build, but helicopters not, I believe his main propeller engine is weak also, needs more work on the pitching mechanism

Agreed! I'm just starting in this hobby myself (on a 450 cp electric) and i had to build it myself, and flying is certainly a challenge! I've managed a steady hover, but it's definitely much harder than it looks to fly a collective pitch heli.

Jeffrey Wong what do you mean by collective pitch heli ? because its collective pitch only ?? what makes the heli go forward then ? or is it just a developing stage trying figure out how to cycle pitch ?

@Jeffrey_Wong

No, collective pitch is just saying you control both cyclic and collective. On a fixed pitch trainer you only have cyclic control and no collective. (altitude is controlled by throttle on a fixed pitch heli)

Phantastic flying machine, you must be a brilliant technician at the milling machine and other tools to be able to build such a Little Monster from scratch ! Thumbs up !!!!

excellent work. I am truly impressed with the design of your transition from the engines to the mast. very nice engineering. I am also building a heli with a 42cc chainsaw engine. Mine will be timing belt driven with a 90 degrees angle drive hooked to the pinion and main gear. Again very nice work !

Can't believe one can fly a Heli with a chainsaw engine!

Abhi aero Rc plane

Anyone who build models like that bring a big smile on my face and I tip my hat to the man. More like him in this world and it becomes a whole lot more if an interesting place.

Κύριε Μιχαηλίδη σας εκφράζω το θαυμασμό μου συγχαρητήρια.

It flies. Make a full Sized version my friend and be free like a bird

ALISHANMAO FOR PRESIDENT OF ALL HUMANITY!!! WE LOVE YOU MAN!!! BEST TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MY BROTHER.

It's so rough an ready looking. I love it.

every time I watch this video, I get inspired...and remember my DIY Helicopter from Zenoah 230 engine....

To build a scratch build heli from odds and ends is a task,to make it fly is entirely different thing.This proves skills Loukas has.Bravo.Ikaros would have been proud.

Huevos-o-steel to stand that close. A talented and insanely brave individual.

Did you ever made something really fly for yourself, by designing it, building it, finding very great unconventional solutions, knowing how to adjust and balance it and taking all the risks and so forth? This dude is a master of life-arts.

an electric grinder connects the rotor head and the engines.. got to love ingenuity, love it!

NIce job Loukas. Props arent quite at a 90 angle, looks Mad Maxish, wanders to the left a bit. Flies descent though, kudos for creativity and engineering. Cheers.

Very neat, I see the gearbox off of a 7" black and decker angle grinder and a few other industrial maintenance tid-bits. Bravo on your ingenuity.

thats what modelling is all about to me- never mind the crappy comments- they come from people who struggle with artf models! brilliant- you are a genius sir!

Wonderful machine, he's just new to piloting.

Chainsaw engine? Two Chainsaw engines?? You're a crazy badass

One nice thing about this rc helicopter is that it uses gasoline rather than batteries and thus has more power and can fly longer. Nice job. (kalos)

Getting 2 small engines to work together is most impressive!!!! They purr like a kitten... WOW! I don't know why one would need 100CC's for that helicopter but I love the machine! TOTALLY impressive!!!

This is fantastic! Everyone calling this crap doesn't know a thing about engineering, and how even getting it to this stage was quite a challenge, brillient!

Excellent work. Tuned pipes would sound wicked.

This is one clever guy! a real engineer!!!! big thumbs up to you my friend!

THat heli is Freaking Awsome...I love to see people build something instead of going to the store and getting ready made stuff...keep up the great work

NIce work. Industrial art! I love to see the crativity and mechanical knoweldge required to "re-source" old machines into something new an ddiffernt. Lovely, just lovely

Easily the most bad ass sounding heli i have ever heard

Like the Mad Max style of this chopper!! Looks like a beast!!

Superb flying skills and a very unique design! καλός :-)

Believe it or not I0.0 hp is enough to lift a man of the ground on a hand glider or ultralight. This Is just awesome!

Nice home made heli. good job with connecting the clutch and transfer case. Clever workman ship

ενα μπραβο κ απο μενα το ελικοπτερο υπεροχο το ιδικο κ ο πιλοτος μονο ενα μεγαλο μπραβο

what a super genius People just near to Yamaha Rmax great job mr loukas from Tithorea

you have alot of faith in your skills I wouldnt want to come nearby these props. Great job!

I've seen scratch built planes, but scratch build heli?; speechless! Awesome work man!

Of course. Once lifted there is no limit for a heli (only the power of the transmitter or dangerous glitches can come into play if you fly really far), it's a decision of the pilot. Guess he doesn't like to crash. He knows what he does and keeps it safe, he's carefull. Flying a heli is absolutely not easy, And i guess it's a test flight, nice tricks might be seen in his next video, this model has power enough for that :-)

I kinda agree with you, I just would not let development get in the way of personal freedom. I believe development comes as a result of personal freedom, if the technology were here yet, I'm sure someone would have been making millions on flying bikes. :-) I wouldn't mind more recycling though, toys as well. But take a look at a company like Walkera. They develop brilliant "toys" with innovative use of new and old technology I am sure will be used in everyday household appliances in the future.

Good mechanics good pilots rarely the same person! Great work!!!

I'm thinking maybe Sikorsky started out this way, difference is he would not have had to contend with so many fuckwits dumping shit on his good work. Well done my friend keep up the good work. Most of these wankers writing with such negativity would scarcely have the brains to Pre-mix the 2-stroke fuel, let alone design and build such a complex system

Looks good too, like a steampunk dragonfly.

nice job on the heli

This reminds of me of the movie Road Warrior but only it is a heli instead of a car... I like it, this is really cool... Great job.

Yea, it really small, versatile and having a loud gas engine lend it great indoor flying properties.

That rite there is way freakin cool! Just Awsome! Looks like the engine, with it bein out front of the birl like it is, would make the "center of gravity" way way way way off! Looks like the bird would be really super duper nose heavy! Good job of the hovering flight trials!

The flying weed whacker :) Great engineering, my friend!

A remarkable engineering achievement !

very bad ass... And for a test flight she really does handle very well.

that's real wild beast! outstanding!!

This beast looks much cooler than it files

Awesome. I started with r/c helicopters about 30 years ago and I didn't do as well as this. Great job,

good heli.... you must be very smart to build that... and iron out the kinks with success. looks like it might fly all day...

Hats off to you sir ! Keep up the good work!

props for making it from scratch!

Unique machine; longest series of tail-in hovers we've seen for a while. I hung in with this video hoping when he felt it was reliable he would put it up high and throw it around a little.

Wow, I bet you could teach me a thing or two about rc helis. Great job.

Thise are the cutest little carbs iv ever seen :)

Love that Mad Max look or something out of Terminator.

itd be alot cooler if he left the chain saw blades on it and let it be a flying chain saw. i guess spinning steel blades are just as good

Wow,well done....amazing!

signomi, Yosou Kosta !!!!!!!!!!! Bravo!!!!!!!!!!

good job. i dont think many other people could do this.

Yes it has forward motion, he's hovering it, and in order to stay in a hover you have to have control over forward sideways and spinning motions. It's really remarkable to have made a home built heli at all. My question is though, can it do flips? :3

That man is an air-foosball pro in the beginning of the video.

Looks like the gearbox is an old angle grinder. Full marks for innovation and recylcling :)

Great Job!!!!! cheers from Turkey!

agh, i built something bigger than that, but then i woke up and it was gone. nice heli!

Its a flying weed wacker! Honestly though that is awesome

We should admire about his technological ideas.If you can help others how to make and share your technology.

Fantastic achievement!

very nice helicopter ,sr i wish i had a little of your knowledge so i can make something this nice .!!

Damn Greece is amazing

Thing is people who invent/engineer things themselves usually appreciate other peoples ingenuity. Guessing you lack creativity, and bash things you can't make. So keep telling yourself you are an expert to preserve your pride.

The Tony Stark of RC helicopters... Who cares if it rough around the edges or doesn't sound like a 100cc is suppose to sound, the thing is handmade. It's like a Mad Max version of a T-Rex

This has to be the coolest thing i have ever seen. Does the drive train/differential get HOT from all the hot air from the engines getting blown back over it? GREAT work! +5000000 kudos I'd love to hear more details on this heli!

Awesome! I just wish he would stand back! It's still basically a saw! It just flys now! :-)

Maybe for you but for educated people it is good piece of engineering and it is probably more important than anything that you will achieve in your whole life.

Epic! lol that gyro has some vibrations to ignore... look at that boom shaking :D I guess thats the backside of having the most awesome sounding helicopter ever - vibes from hell.

Now that, is a masterpiece, lol looks hard to fly but awesome job, i know i could never do something that awesome :)

Looks surprisingly stable and responsive for somthing handmade. It's not the first heli you've built, is it?

Nice work. well done, awesome control.

Looks so heavy!Nice job tho!

Молодец, из бензотриммера (двух) сделал вертушку.

Great job ! Next time try a flying chain saw !!! Μπράβο σου !

EXELLENT 10/10

its a bird, no its a plane , no its a flying weed eater !!!! awesome job !!!

The fastest broomstick of the world. :-)

Great creation Kostas!!! I hope u will video high flights as well. I'm just curious, how did u make your "junction" gearbox (from main to tailrotor) in relation with the two engines and their centrifugal clutches? Thanks, lol!!

I'm amazed it flies so well ,it must weigh allot.

nice helicopter. it looks very cool.

Bravo Louka!

Impressive stuff. Well done

ΕΝΤΥΠΩΣΙΑΚΟ! Ακριβώς περίεργος, δεν μπορείτε να προσθέσετε το επιπλέον κινητήρα «γιατί θα μπορούσε», ή είναι η ανάγκη για την επιπλέον ισχύ εκεί; Impressive! Just curious, did you add the extra engine "because you could", or is there a need for the extra power?

Super helicopter very nice selten zu sehen

Fine. Good job!

it is and remains a grasstrimmers. but its flying. good work

Talk about torque sure would like to see him fly this after several weeks of practice it would make a good drone for light recon.

Ya to deadly old man lol i bet many old lady love your stao at the club good work old man

That's a really helpful observation. Thanks for sharing. Go buy a Happy Meal......
