That was a hatchet job on Benson at the end. They have been around forever and its actually quite safe. An autogyro is safer than a helocopter because it is autorotating all the time. If it loses the engine, it just comes down to the ground at a reasonable speed.

@markswinford4806

I thought the same damn thing. An autogyro is always in autorotation (as opposed to a helicopter) and like you said, if the engine quits the air is already flowing upwards thru the rotor disk. A helicopter has to transition to autorotation mode if the engine quits, the air is flowing downward thru the rotor disk normally. The accidents that have happened for autogyros usually are related to pilot error, not the fault of the machine. But it is fun for people to make videos and hype things they are clueless about.

You talk about the gyrocopter as if it was made by one manufacturer and never caught on. They towed unpowered versions of these behind U-Boats during WW2 so they could get someone up high to take a good look around. After the war several manufacturers made them with engines and it can be seen in one of the Bond movies (You only live twice?) . That one was the Wallace Autogiro. Note: the rotor blades are never powered. The engine at the back is purely to give it some forward motion to make the rotor blades spin in the wind and provide lift.

I don't like your comment about the Benson Gyrocopter. It is a rock-solid and stable aircraft deserving far more respect and appreciation. I have seen and known the builders and pilots of those Gyrocopters. They tell stories about their flights with incredible visibility of the ground, slow flight stability, and economical operation. Many survivors of disasters have reported being passed over by search airplanes or helicopters and were never seen because the of pilot's limited view of the ground.

Being in co start autorotation makes gyrocopters so safe that you'd have to actively work against the gyroscope to crash it

I would definitely feel more secure in an autogyro/gyrocopter, than any of these dodecacopters or tiny fixed-wing things that can stall. The Open Sky "Mowe" (seagull) wasn't really made to be a "people mover" but it would be something to get around on. Early versions were gliders, either elastic or towed launch just to get out of GE above the runway. The later model was tested that way, before flying. There are videos of all the testing they did, so they've been very methodical. They finally took it to OshKosh. Of course the one the girl in the movie rode had empty weight under 30 kg, never needed fueling, was VTOL capable, apparently had a very smart AI autopilot, made and powered with unobtanium.

The author of this vid needs to do a bit of homework. The Benson Gyro was a GREAT and VERY SAFE Gyro. Thousands of them were made and Mr. "Benson" was the demo pilot. The ONLY problem, like in most things, is the LACK of education from the pilot. Gravity is easy to understand. Density Altitude is a bit more complicated and THAT was the killer. People stalled the rotor NOT understanding how the lift was created in different situations. Too bad too. I LOVED flying it.

@@radicalrick9587 Actually, you are totally wrong. The engine is driving a pusher prop with no shaft power going to the main blades. A gyrocopter does not power the main blade set, the blades are free spinning, and auto-rotate. Much like a maple leaf falling from a tree, which is auto-rotation as well. Proof of what I say is shown right in the video, where the pilots are hand rotating the blades, to get them to start moving. This is prior to "dragging the runway" to get the blades spinning even faster. Once in the air, the pusher prop keeps the blades spinning (overcoming their inherent drag). A helicopter needs a tail rotor since the engine puts torque to the main blades, and the main blades in turn would try to spin the helicopter itself.

Motor can refer to an electric motor or an internal combustion engine (as in motor car). Engine can only refer to a fuel burning propulsion machine..either with pistons or jet turbine. Please don’t start trying to make electric be termed ‘engines’. The poor English language is constantly being butchered by internet ‘Toobers’.

5:44 Love how they made the blades at neck level

Hi Tyler Whieler, thanks for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video 🙂

That anime, Nausicaa of the Valley of the WInd, is one of my favorites and yes it does resemble that craft.

Some very good options for the next Airforce One when they'll have to cut budget.

2:12 $44,000, I bet the price does not even include the engine :-)

It would be highly appreciated if you could specify the weight and other measurements not only in regional but also in international units understood by the remaining 95%+ of us. Thanks!

they have conversion utilities on the internet... actually the world runs on metric only the states are way behind the times. to convert kilometers to miles multiply by 0.6 you'll be close enough (the actual is 0.62x).

The movie was 'Princess Nausicca and The Valley of the Wind. Good movie. 'Manned Drone'? It's just a fancy helicopter. Drones are not manned. Passenger Drone? Copterpack looks absolutely terrifying. I would like three please.

Make it a six-pack and I'll have one also please. Me and my Bud bought a beginner hang glider in 1978 and flew it at Lake Travis several times. The rivets eventually loosened allowing Lake Travis water to infiltrate the aluminum tubing sinking our dreams to a depth that was unrecoverable. Some local scuba divers said it was well past their comfort zone depth. Oh well...My Bud was killed hang gliding in the Aderondacks (spelling)outside of Fort Drum. He was a cool guy, an adrenaline junkie. I miss those days and those great people.

Minute 7:21, is the beach outside my back door. I watch her fly that day. Very impressive.

@@BeyondFacts Sadly NO, I outweigh her and the machine combined. I'm 6'5" and 300#. The association president kicked them out as they were trespassing. I was sad.
