@MultipleDumbness robbycoats you are correct. he is in the swirl crated by the rotor blades which makes hovering just off the deck very hard to control. he's good pilot.
Gee what a smart idea... 3 stick like legs with no wheels or skips to absorb, deflect or redirect momentum, that will dig in as easily as metal spikes and ensure you flip over a dozen times from even a mildly hard landing... Can you say "Broken Neck?"
Sounds like Russ Freeman and the music of the Rippingtons. Is this the same Doug who has been a factory test pilot at Robinson Helicopter Company since he was just a young pilot? If so, I flew with him in 1992 and he can fly pretty well.
I cant help but think that these look like instant death. I personally would not fly one with a ballistic chute, and I think all copter varieties should feature them.
greeting you from Hatyai,Songkla,Thailand . Wow...great ..small helicopter!! I like it ... How much - US Dollar- that you invested for this ? great ...great ... :)
@drewfilms123 What do you think drives the rotor in many supposedly "safe" certified helicopters, Like an R22, an R44 or a Schwiezer 300??? Belts..... and they fly safe and sound thousands of times a day or more across the country!
is it possible to contact Doug Bryant for information on this aircraft? a mechanical friend of mine would like to make it, he already has the engine, but he would need the mechanical drawings, is it possible to buy them? Thank you
@CoonsterVideos I assume he's being light on the pitch so he can land quickly and not break anything... Judging by how he flies I don't think he's done it much.. These do go higher.
It is very difficult to hover a machine like this so close to the ground. He would do better to use a hovercraft for this sort of thing. Its really too bad that a machine that looks so cool cannot fly higher. With more power this thing would be perfect for beating traffic on the way to work. Boost up the power and lets really see this thing fly!
their located in gainsville florida... idk the exact address but thats google for you... would love to see one in person. i live in destin so to far for me to travel lol. like i have never been to key west
well this can fly up to 10,000 feet and 100mph it all depends on and i will admit the video is a bit week but it all depends on the pilot's comfort range
Have to laugh at the people complaining about the music, doesn't your keyboard have a mute button? Or did you forget how to hit the back button for the porn site you were just on? It is his clip and his choice, perhaps if you ever get the balls to fly one, you can chose a better selection for music. Like a funeral march....
I was thinking the same thing. Y not crank it up and show us some high G turns? is it 2 windy..the trees in the back ground show wind 10 to 15 mph...maybe u should have waited till the air was like glass.Man that thing should fly like and R/C Heli ,it's small enough.
yes I think we can use the word "violent", what it can be happen, in the way of life of a man to think one second that he can lesson this kind of music, and what what happen in his past toconvice him self that he can, yes he can choose that piece of sh*** to illustrate on of the best video I ever looked at youtube ? It's a real question, and this question is as important as what motor he have used, does he use gyro or something like that.. Stop joking , I realy like this mosquito ! Really
Great helicopter, real music.
the music is so stinkin funny!!!
Fine piece of flying there, ignore the idiots who don't know how to fly a chopper and just how hard it is.
Well done
OK helicopter. Ultra Awesome music. nuf said.
sounds like an early 90's sitcom
Now that is impressive!
it is fantastic, so simple
Retro background music...70's "all of the sudden"! Great PH, wish he was to fly a little bit more higher though.
Actually, if you look closely at 2:51 you'll see the legs do in fact have skips. They are small, but they are there.
@MultipleDumbness robbycoats you are correct. he is in the swirl crated by the rotor blades which makes hovering just off the deck very hard to control. he's good pilot.
Love it.
That's enough you two; Just shake each others joystick and be buds. aye?
That is awsome...
Good job!! 🍺 😎 👍
i bet you feel like tom cruise when you put those flight gloves on
i think this is great
Sounds like a mid 80's hotel lobby music
this music makes you concentrate i believe :)
I ahve visions of flying through swarms of insects in the summer...lol
Gee what a smart idea... 3 stick like legs with no wheels or skips to absorb, deflect or redirect momentum, that will dig in as easily as metal spikes and ensure you flip over a dozen times from even a mildly hard landing...
Can you say "Broken Neck?"
Sounds like a version of 80's version of Elevator music.
Every take off and landing begines with a hover. It is best to get good at it. :)
@AltAgent Your exactly right! Nobody goes near the ceiling of these things. It's sad because you know they could do more.
I want one!
It's nice you remember your beginnings! Mother must have taken you to work with her..
so much for boots and a flightsuit,only sperry topsiders and white socks for me weeeeeeeeeeee!
My god, what am I vegetable shopping? Mute!
Dude you know how to fly a helicopter° great job
This original helicopter is splendid.
Is it a question?
What CC will the engine be?
What maker did you use?
Thanking you in advance.
Hovering is always fun, but I'd enjoy seeing it in translational flight and doing an auto.
Oh that music spoils everything.
Sounds like Russ Freeman and the music of the Rippingtons. Is this the same Doug who has been a factory test pilot at Robinson Helicopter Company since he was just a young pilot? If so, I flew with him in 1992 and he can fly pretty well.
Where did the cool jazz music come from?(title and track) and, which ultralight is he flying around, looks like a T-bird? Thanks
brilliant
Is there an auto pilot? If there was, I would just float and have lunch.
very nice!
i want to buy one someday.
i have question:the pilot's left foot is seems shaking all the way.
is this came from machine or pilot him self?
Wow nice
Sorry Doug for the jerks on this page. I think this is an awesome video!
This is on Hamilton Field? I was there - spring 2004 with my friend Paul Fiebich.
Cheers from Croatia- Europe.

The plane in the background is an Air Bike.
greeting you from Hatyai,Songkla,Thailand .
Wow...great ..small helicopter!!
I like it ...
How much - US Dollar- that you invested for this ?
great ...great ... :)
I know weight is a concern, but wouldn't some kind of longer skids be useful?
@drewfilms123 What do you think drives the rotor in many supposedly "safe" certified helicopters, Like an R22, an R44 or a Schwiezer 300??? Belts.....
and they fly safe and sound thousands of times a day or more across the country!

I tried to make contact with Doug shortly after John Uptigrove the designer was killed but he didn't want to speak to me.
Why does he not fly higher? Does he not trust the aircraft? or can it only hover that high?
is that an ultra light helicopter and what was the cost and the time it took to build it up out of the box message me
i would fly it that low in the beginning too,
@CoonsterVideos I assume he's being light on the pitch so he can land quickly and not break anything... Judging by how he flies I don't think he's done it much.. These do go higher.
do you buy the helicopter or do you build it your self ?
I know this is gonna sound stupid but what kind of fuel does a helicopter like this use??
I liked
hello
a question: when you act on the cyclic control forward, the swashplate tilts in that direction?
@RobbyCoats you are right, ground effect !
"Flying.."
This is am early test model ?..lots of videos of the Mosquito helicopters on youtube,this is the same model?
What happens when the rubber belt breaks? I simply do not trust rubber belts, I have had too many break on my motor bikes.
Doug, does the smaller diameter main rotor cause it to be a bit twitchier than the larger birds? really want one now.
It looks like a helicopter, but a kind of Ground-effect vehicles, I guess.
Do they have transponders or any avionics?
Where do you put the B.R.S chute? if not, you are braver than I am.
oh very safe
He may love this thing but doesn't he like to fly higher than some can jump?
1.16 what airplane is in the back?
yes, they are 27k before assembly!
wow need one of those to get to work on time, newer stuck in traffic jams anymore ! cool done if all home made ?
great, its you invention or desing? I like your creativiti, please hold a video for the construction
so when do you do anything other than hover?
these things do go higher than 6 inches....

@RobbyCoats true.... ground turbulence...
their located in gainsville florida... idk the exact address but thats google for you... would love to see one in person. i live in destin so to far for me to travel lol. like i have never been to key west
how much power does it's motor have?
@Mrcaffinebean what is the ceiling for these?
What is the power of the engine cc?
tu eres un , como diryam los brasilianos, grande mané!!kkkkkk
The music is fine, these people want to hear Born to be Wild. Their hero is Tom Cruise flying F 18's
Does this thing hover out of ground effect?
I mean I loled
well this can fly up to 10,000 feet and 100mph it all depends on and i will admit the video is a bit week but it all depends on the pilot's comfort range
i guess i would be afraid to go higher than 5 feet as well
Quantos em torno (R$ , US$ ) custaria uma aeromodelo deste tipo?
can you take that into the city?
how many hp is there ?
how powelful motor need to do like that helicopter ?`
does it go any higher?
po., por que não vai mais alto???
eu não teria coragem, mas...
foi feito só p/ voar a um metro de altura???
show congratulations
How much are these things?
I want to buy one where is the location ?
q motor eu uso para 2 pessoas e qual rotor eu uso ?
how much is one of those?
i dont know about u but something about a spiining blad 2 feet above my head just does not make sens
one question... HOW MUCH!!!

Stop joking , I realy like this mosquito ! Really
@ChineseSweatShoppe According to there website they can hover at 6,500 feet.
can anybody tell me the price of this hlicopter?
Poor guys feet are shaking.
