Mart,
Over the next few days I'll try to work out what the lift would be on the retreating side during translation (or is it 'transformation'
) when the lift is at its least.
If the lift is very little then the
Traversing Ideal-Twist System (TITS) could be 'tits up', and not in the desired way.
Conceptualizing and Engineering:
The best helicopter of its time was developed by a conceptualist and an engineer. Flettner was constantly raising wild ideas and Hohememser was technically shooting down most of them .
