Engine type eludes me, can't find what is despite lots of googling.
It dates from 1932 and was designed in Austria but soon left it.

Quite correct.
It's a long forgotten pioneer but still exists, sat in the Helicopter Museum on Weston Super Mare airfield.
The connection with Weston being that Raoul Hafner become chief designer for Bristol who occupied the far side of the airfield.
The YouTube video was a good find, I now know what the weird side panels were for.

The photo is a Mitsubishi T-2, the tail configuration is nearly identical to the F-1.
Kitbag did identify the RR Turbomeca Adour type engine, which was produced under license in Japan and known as the Ishikawa-Harima TF40-801A.
Zaxis is correct. He has control.
