Problem 1: he is missing about 100 horsepower --> instant RPM losse on pitching up
Problem 2: for some reason tail rotor authority is not enough
Problem 3: CG is way back

but other than that his got a lot of things right
  • a well balanced rotor head
  • some cyclic controls (spider type inside the shaft)
  • a robust design
  • anti roll over bars
  • and some fuel
