    Please let me know in the comment section how i can improve the Balancing and/or Aligning of the Blades. I encountered excessive vibration when testing/spinning the blades. I have not exactly tracked the blades jet, but maybe the vibration come also from non-correct aligning or balancing of the blades?

    Ho notato che il C.G. della pala è stato fatto solo su una delle due, andrebbe fatto su entrambe, potrebbe differire la misura, in base alla misura della pala con il C.G. più esterno, si bilancia la seconda mettendo il contrappeso di bilanciamento sul C.G. di quella con C.G. più interno. Il contrappeso lo hai montato sull' estremità della pala più leggera, creando uno sbilanciamento Dinamico... anche se quello Statico sembrerebbe a posto 👍👍 Io sono eli-modellista da anni e la centratura Statica e dinamica delle pale è molto difficile...👍👍👍👍👍👍

    Great video, enjoyed that. One thing I did was to balance the rotors both in the span and chord-wise directions. I aligned the rotor blades as you did, ( I used string) but that wasn't balanced in the chord direction. I had to slightly miss-align the rotor blades so that it balanced in the middle of the rotor mast. How much friction is there in those teeter hinge bearings ? The way I did it, it took 5 minutes for the rotor to stop teetering after a disturbance so span balancing was accurate. Blades out of track should be noticed as a vertical vibration and out of balance a horizontal vibration. Cheers Ben

    A follow up on my previous suggestion is to reweigh the blade and see if the center of gravity has change in either blade. You didn't mention whether it was a vertical or horizontal diversion. I have about 8000 hrs in rotor craft and have experienced just about every type of vibration there is

    Great job!! The design of your helicopter is impressive. One question why did you choose a symmetrical profile of main rotor blades? It has the lowest efficiency against a profil with a flat bottom surface. Using an engine with a small power headroom (as a Rotax 582 have) there is a chance of lift force lack at nominal attack angles. Masquito helicopters are use a profile with a slightly curved bottom, it's probably a concern for efficiency in utilizing of available power.

    Thank you. I did use the NACA 0012 symmetrical profile because it is recommended for this type of helicopter in the plans. Originally build in the early 1980`s. Also the production of a symmetrical blade is easier in my humble opinion to produce with the quite basic tools i have. But i agree, for performance it may not be the best option to go with a symmetrical blade.

    @@ultralighthelicopter Thanks for the reply! I've been following your project almost from the beginning. Looking forward to the first fly test. A huge number of helicopters are use a symmetrical profile which is a classic as a whole. I'm planning to build an extremely lightweight apparatus (coaxial or with two synchro-rotors), today I'm just concentrating on propellers designing. You will succeed, I believe! Use all kinds of protection and the Lord be with you!

    Tolle Arbeit! Bitte erlaube mir eine paar Bemerkungen: Die komplette Kraft des Motors geht über die zwei Steuerstangen mit den 2 gegenläufigen Gewinden. Diese wird auf Druck beansprucht. Kann es sein, dass sie sich unter der Last verbiegt/ etwas nachgibt? Dadurch würde ggf. eine eigentlich kleine dynamische Unwucht verstärkt werden. Muss das Ausgleichsgewicht nicht im Schwerpunkt des Blatts montiert werden? Anderenfalls wird durch das Ausgleichsgewicht der Schwerpunkt des Blatts verändert. Haben die Ausgleichsgewichte den gleichen Abstand vom Drehpunkt? Wenn sich die Rotorblätter unter Last verbiegen, und die Blätter nicht vollkommen symmetrisch aufgebaut sind, entsteht erneut eine Unwucht. Schau mal im Netz unter "Räder auswuchten, wie hat man das früher gemacht?". Da gibt es gute Hinweise. Man wird das nicht direkt auf einen Rotor übertragen können, weil ja der Rotor im Gegensatz zu einer Felge keine starre Einheit ist. Ich weiß, das sind keine Lösungen, sondern nur Gedanken :-). Mit Begeisterung beobacht ich Deine großartige Arbeit. Weiterhin viel Spaß und Erfolg bei der Arbeit! Lieben Gruss aus Deutschland.

    Just thought, but could part of the problem be with shifting 0f internal foam in the blade. Even though the whole blade weight remains the same there is a difference is rotational weight if internal items shift to the outer portion of the blade in full rotation. The further items shifting towards the outer rim, kind of like false gravity.

    Hy. On a teetering rotor system used in 2 bladed helicopters you don't need lead lag hinges because you have the geometry of the teetering hinge, which is the blade flapping hinge for both blades on a single flapping axis.
