"Mosquito Helicopter Ballet"

- All Ultralight Flying is minimalist in nature. In order to meet the weight requirements, structures and engines are pared down to the barest material needed for the strength required. They become models of aeronautical engineering.
One of the most complex of all flying systems is the helicopter. The mechanism used in order to allow the spinning wings (rotor) overhead to perform while the craft maintains forward motion is akin to the proverbial "Swiss Watch".
Tying both of these engineering challenges together is an elegant, spare, flying machine from Australia called "The Mosquito".
Doug Bryant of Wichita, Kansas dances his Mosquito through a variety of maneuvers in what Cameraman/Director/Editor Brian FitzGerald calls "Mosquito Helicopter Ballet". This music video is a segment of the movie "Ultralight Flying Millennium 2" by Brian FitzGerald. More on it can be seen here:

I’m half way through building my affordaplane and i just had to find plans for one of these ultralight helicopters on ebay 🤦🏻♂️ here i go again building more toys
Good luck mike
Super popular in Australia.
Gee, well thought and planned, make mass production and sell them at reasonable price.

very nice, he knows how to fly that little heli.....cheers
Wow ... I like it ! Simple prototype and smooth modificated 👍

This helicopter is just how much coin we make

congratulation , mmm i would like to have the plans , help me please
He should teally keep his visor down in case of birdstrike.
Kt mau belajar cara membuat dan merakit helikopter,mohon ada petunjuk dan tutorialnya

Why is his left foot bouncing on the yaw pedal?? Is that from being nervous or from the tail blades being unbalanced? (I noticed theres some tail vibrations)
it might just be from the motor if he built it himself
I think it's natural nerves really. I have the same problem flying an RC heli at times. With my hand though of course. If I'm sort of on the edge of my abilities, I may shake a bit.
Doug is doing the Wichita two step. Doing just fine too. It will gradually go away as he acclimates to this bird -

I was just thinking the same thing
Sir can you please tell how you made it and what you used

very nice, are those fuel tanks on top of your head? and what type of engine are you using? :)
Trymore Kefasi Yes, those are his fuel tanks. At that time he was using an MZ-202 engine but he has since switched to a Rotax 503.
Curios here. No smart comments. I did the jet ski thing for about five years. Almost every weekend seriously. Colorado River. Anyhow, the "Skis" that I saw broken down more than any were those with Rotax motors. When I started to view videos of ultralights and so on, I saw that many used Rotax motors. This seemed odd to me due to my anecdotal "evidence".
I also noticed that Yamaha motors seemed to be virtually bullet proof. The stock ones anyhow. However, I don't see Yamaha motors in Ultralights. Is there anything to this?
On that note. (Dependable motors.) Is a turbine more dependable than say a tried and true four stroke motor designed for the air such as a Lycoming?
Great video! In addition to my RC helicopter, I have 6.5 hours in the jump seat of a Huey while performing aeromedical transport, so I have some idea how choppers fly. This sure looks nice, and possibly the only one I could ever own (or fly). I am, as is always the case, quite disappointed that instead of hearing the sound of the engine, we get cornball "music."
J. D. Schultz, Sr. Inm
Which engine (bicycle, car or anything else ) you used in this project ?
You can't hear the engine just wind noise. You can mute the music and play Nascar in the background and get a better idea of what it sounds like.
very kool,,,,,,would like to hear the heli sound,,,,,,
I doubt it. It sounds like a bunch of bees in a mason jar after you shake it up.
You can start up your chain saw and get the same motor music.
Me personally, I didn't like the racket but decided to put one of my all time favorite tunes under it.
Brian FitzGerald + Nevertheless, I'd rather hear the engine. 1000 to 1.
That Fan is big enough for any hot day
Moga orang indonesia ada yg bisa bikin seperti ini
Tentu

Amazing ... I don't know how he can control the balance without overturning while flying.

Why Does your left foot pulsate on the tail pedals.hopefully I will get a xel soon.great control of the air mosquito.Thanks R.M.
Doug had a transient vibration that he later dampened. I believe it started in the tail rotor and caused the boom to flex ending up at his foot pedal. Vibrations like that are a common factor with helicopters.
Dear Petr,
I am not a dealer. I just produced this movie as part of a documentary I made. I will send your info to the guy flying The Mosquito, though. He is a dealer.

With that lawn mower engine if you had a blade on the bottom you could cut the grass at the same time. Lol.!!! Just kidding, great machine.
Great point!
الله يعاونك
Why is the pilot's left foot continually twitching for crying out loud? 😎
It has to do with the large number of competing vibrations coursing through all helicopters. They tend to manifest at one spot in the frame and in this copter they show at that foot petal.
Cuánto es el costo y especificaciones técnicas gracias

Maaf....mesin apa yang digunakan itu...
آسف .... ما الجهاز الذي يستخدم ذلك.
I got my commercial and instrument rating in helicopters, and I miss it every day, but I have to admit I would be terrified to fly that thing!! How are you managing your engine power or manifold pressure and rotor RPM without gauges? Is the throttle using a correlater, or is it 100% manual? Yikes! I would at least need a rotor RPM gauge! It's so critical especially the lighter the helicopter is and the smaller the engine is the preferred rpm range for the main rotor can be a very small range between minimum and maximum rotor RPM. It becomes even more critical when you're using a light low inertia rotor system that is highly susceptible to very rapid changes and rotor RPM.

Dear Tom,
I did the music video and the interview. This is part of my movie "UFM2".
I'm certain he has a rotor tach. This is a two cycle engine so he is using a tach on it also but he told me he ran it 100% all the time.
I think you haven't seen the interview part yet. Check it out here:

I did watch the Mustang Valley video right after you posted it! Another fantastic video as usual!!!
Just fly the fucking thing and don’t worry about all that shit
Utterly superb.
Thanks a lot 😊

I think you are asking the cost. It is in the $30,000 US range.
Good day, where can I get hold of the plans for this helicopter, please advise I will much appreciate it.

Sir what its engine called
MZ 202. That's what he had on it when I shot the movie. After that he replaced the MZ with a Rotax 503.
I noticed the tail rotor rotates in the opposite direction as most helicopters, usually they rotate up into the main rotor wash, was this portion of the video run backwards or does it actually turn this way ?
There is no reverse video in this piece. What you see is what I saw. You can find more about the Mosquito on their website.

what engine is that used for
He later put a Rotax 503 on it that worked better. 48 hp.
Es un video de efectos especiales de grabación o de un pequeño helicoptero?
It is the real thing:
composite-fx.com/
People, it’s time there’s a semi-automated mini heli. The thing takes off and lands if you can’t, takes over mid air if you want. Open this thing up man let’s start getting everyone in the air!
That's what a variety of folks are trying to do with drone-type craft. If you search the web you will find a lot of experiments in that direction. I think the main thing to conquer, though, is the noise inherent in the design. Whenever you have propellers turning at the high speeds drones use, you get a lot of racket from the tips.
Maybe a ducted fan drone can work.

Muy buenas ideas de la gente
!Si!
I notice his left leg keep pushing the pedal. Always
It was from a sympathetic vibration in the whole system.
Where are the drivers airbags?

I think it is in the $30,000 range. You can talk to the guy in the movie about it, Doug Bryant. Here is his email: debryant1@cox.net
Don't forget! Flying helicopters takes training and practice.
Have you looked at "Sky Boogie" on my TH-cam Channel, yet?
I think you will like it.

How high up can it go ?
Δεν σηκοσετε πιο ψηλά 😃😂
Ναι. Δεν φαινόταν να θέλει να πάει ψηλότερα αν και το μηχάνημα μπορεί να πάει πολύ ψηλότερα. Στον Νταγκ αρέσει να δοκιμάζει τις ικανότητές του κοντά στο έδαφος.
A mi me gustaría diseñar uno, si alguien me pudiese ayudar o decirme qué precio tiene.

How much did it cost?
Does it fly from California to New York?
Lol
Nice! Could you put wheels on the landing legs if ya wanted to?
You are smart !! what a nice achievement. Could you please tell me what the exact name of engine you used here ?
The name escapes me right now but it was made in Italy. That one blew up so Doug switched to a Rotax 503.

Sorry, Vishal. This machine costs about $27,000 U.S. It is not cheap. Like they say, it is not gasoline that keeps airplanes flying - it's MONEY!
सर मै इस हेलिकॉप्टर प्रोजेक्ट को देखना चाहता हू यह मुझे कहा मिलेगा फोन नंबर भेजो न
OK. Being English speaking, I ran that through the web translator and got "Sir, I want to see this helicopter project".
Since these "artificial intelligence" translators are not quite there, my guess is you want the website.
Now it is your turn to translate.
