Helicycle

Steve ; I think it flys better than the R-22. More like a Bell 206. The front pillars do not block that much view and you dont notice it after the first hour. I did not log my build hours but it could be done in 500 to 600 hours if you did not deviate from the plans. Most of us did some customizing , paint ,radios ,etc. I have about $45000 US invested. I have not done a full touchdown auto yet but am told it has plenty of rotor interia. Sorry for the short answers , never learned how to type. John M.
