No swash plate

I am looking to do some research into creating a helicopter without a swatchplate. essentially i would be using jets of air to tilt the helicopter to create the propulsion (not to dissimilar to the NOTAR).

I myslef see no reason why thsi would not work, but i am certainly no expert and was hoping that someone here could give me some info. specifiically, has this ever been attempted before, and is there any reason that anybody can think of as to why this would not work
