Default Poco Tiltrotor Project

I have been given permission by the patent holder of this neat little heli to develop it into something that will make it into production. I am hoping to get some help from the pros here. I use AutoCAD 2005 and CADKEY Workshop EX 21.5. I am a Mechanical Engineer and have been flying fixed wing aircraft for about 30 years. I have flown electric helis <kalt whisper> in the past.

If anyone wants to assist let me know. My email address is [email protected]

Thanks in advance,

Jon

Here are some drawings of the first prototype and my drawings of Bells LHX entry the BAT. A couple of the 3d models of the second Poco prototype. Just so everyone is aware that this project was not dreamed up over night. I will post a link to a video on E Zone of the first Poco prototype flying in my next post.

The patent is on the control system itself. It does away with all of the typical heli controls.

Here is the link to the video.
