geomark Posted May 28, 2019 Share In the awesome thread because rotors are better.Incredibly its a 60's design and a 70's machine;https://www.flyingbulls.at/en/fleet/bo105-c/ Pilot friends tell me its some serious flying there. It’s a full ridged rotor system thus a hard flight and you shake a lot. Same rotor as the BK 117 but have also done something to pressurized the fuel and oil reservoirs to make it work when inverted.

dirtypot Posted May 28, 2019 Share In the awesome thread because rotors are better. I saw this whirlybird flying at a RedBull Air Race a while back. It was spectacular! I found it more entertaining than the planes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
