Smallest Mini Helicopter in the World

small doesn't even begin to describe the choppers we have on this list seriously they can actually look like insects when you watch them from afar and today's video is going to be centered around these small helicopters that can carry one or two people on board here are the smallest mini helicopters in the world let's dive right into it shall we no what you're looking at is not a remote controlled toy helicopter it's the real thing but it's not much bigger than the toy to be honest but we digress sicare is the company behind the 7b and they designed it using sketches from their previous models the ch6 and the ch-7 are the most notable examples which were used as inspiration to construct this experimental one-seater that's intended for sport use because it's really small the company claims that it has excellent maneuverability and when you have an aircraft that's this small that's kind of a given no what's surprising is that the zika ray 7b prides itself on great performance safety and the low operational costs to do this the company tried out two engines the first was the rotax 582 which wasn't a perfect fit but when they tried the rotax 912 uls with 100 horsepower they realize the 7b got more power and it makes the little helicopter more secure plus to make the ride even more comfortable the company uses an anti-vibration system that's placed in the gearbox thanks to this and the centrifugal clutch you'll barely feel the vibrations of the motor inside the cockpit next on our list is the dm aerotech coax which is actually a two seater and you know what's interesting the fact that this is the first ul helicopter that's been approved in germany and you might notice that there are four rotor blades on two rotors now because the two rotors are moving in opposite directions this gives the 2d increased stability speaking of the rotor blades we feel like we should mention that they're made from composite materials and if you look at the tail you'll see that there's no rotor this allows the whole of the power to be used for lift instead of giving away some of that power to the tail rotor in the back which plays no major role but what do you get inside the 2d well first of all you would get a chopper that's equipped with a d engine that produces 125 horsepower this will allow the small helicopter to reach a speed of about 93 miles per hour and while many people say that one thousand pounds is a lot of weight we'd like to point out that two people will need to board this helicopter when you subtract the empty weight from the max weight the chopper can carry you get about a 200 pound capacity per person assuming you're not going to be calculating the weight of the fuel needed for proper functioning now if you want to see which of these choppers reaches jaw dropping speeds while still remaining affordable then just keep on watching until pick number six number eight the curry zephyr price to be announced before we get into this remember to smash that like button so you can keep getting awesome videos like these for free the first time we saw it we thought to ourselves ha they added a parachute to a helicopter big whoop but then we thought about it and realized that this has never been done before there has never been a helicopter designed with a safety parachute in case something went wrong and the main reason other manufacturers don't include the parachute on a helicopter regardless of how little it is is because the parachute would be torn to shreds in the rotor blades that's why zephyr has found a way to place a parachute above the rotor blades that way it can be deployed safely and you won't have to wonder if the parachute will get destroyed or not the curry zephyr has even included crash-worthy seats carbon fiber technology that's very light but durable and of course how can we forget about the luxurious interior where you'll feel like you're in an italian fashion house okay if we're being honest this is our favorite model of the bunch maybe it's the vibrant colors maybe it's because it's a single seater but whatever it is we absolutely love it now let's talk a little bit about the actual aircraft for example the gila cycle has only a two bladed rotor at the top and the engine it uses is a solar t62-32 the company is located in new mexico where they pack the parts for the helicopter and they ship them out to any owner across the world now it's only fair to tell you that you'll be getting the eagle hela cycle in a kit form which means you'll have to assemble it yourself so far there have been 85 models built and production started back in 1997. people have been buying them because they have a capacity of 351 pounds and a max speed of 110 miles per hour and a range of 140 nautical miles believe us when we say you can never find a deal like this they also call it the reinabot which is an ultralight helicopter that was initially intended for the european market but it's also available worldwide it's only about six percent more expensive than the charlie 2 but when you consider all of the free time he gets and a maintenance cycle of 2 000 hours because it's on the slightly more expensive side of things it's got some pretty killer specs for example the ranabot has a useful load of pounds the max speed of the aircraft is 110 knots and the crew speed goes down to 97 knots the max range of this chopper is 259 nautical miles or about three hours of non-stop flying after that you're on your own maybe they should have included the parachute in case something goes wrong here we'll be talking about a group of aircraft by yoyo helicopter currently there are four types the first one is the yoyo standard the second one is the yoyo gts the third one is the excel and the final one is the ss 190 hp each of the models is slightly more powerful than the previous one and they all come with a standard 172 horsepower engine that will allow this two-seater to reach a max speed of 116 miles per hour and a cruise speed of about 105 miles per hour plus thanks to the 68 liter fuel tank the yoyo series 3 aircraft are capable of reaching a destination that's 435 miles away being part of the ultralight category for helicopters the h3 sport has a max takeoff weight of 1100 pounds but that's not nearly as important as the fact that the h3 has safety features only available to much more expensive models and now let's talk about some of the specs that come as a result of the rotax 912 uls ibb engine first of all we should tell you that it produces 135 horsepower a never exceeded speed of 102 miles per hour and a cruise speed of 87 miles per hour just like many of the other helicopters on this list it has a 10 000 foot service ceiling and a fuel tank of 60 liters that allows you to have a play time of about two and a half to three and a half hours for about 30 years of operational history the r22 has still remained on the quote unquote menu and people continue to buy them to this day it has a two-bladed rotor system and a special technology that will ensure the fuel tank doesn't get damaged in case of a crash as we've said this is a two-seater and it's operated by a lycoming 0360 four-cylinder which produces a hefty 131 horsepower now because the total mean takeoff weight is 1370 pounds while useful load is 880 pounds and still you'll be flying with a speed of up to 102 knots the standard fuel tank has a capacity to get filled with 101 pounds of fuel which will last you about 250 nautical miles hey yes you don't forget to smash that subscribe button and hit the notifications bell when an aircraft is named the mosquito you just know it's going to be small and to be honest it's not that much bigger than a porsche when you put them side by side now the mosquito has four models each more powerful than the last the xe the one we chose for this video is actually the second on the list it has an empty weight of just 300 pounds and a 600 pound mean takeoff weight because it's using the mz-202 engine it can reach a top speed of 70 miles per hour and a cruise speed of 65 miles per hour now thanks to the 45 liter gas tank you can get between 2.2 and 4 hours of playtime and it all depends on the type of pilot you are and finally we come to the last pick on the list and this one is the craziest remember those cartoon hats with the small propellers on the top well they got bigger like a lot bigger all joking aside this is actually a helicopter you can sit on and it's designed by japanese manufacturer gen corporation but sadly the production was suspended in 2012 but what did it offer it has an empty weight of 154 pounds and has a gross weight of 485 pounds the fuel capacity on this thing is 19 liters and there are four gen 125 f two cylinder air cooled two stroke engines and do you wanna know the max speed you'd be reaching on the h4 a jaw dropping 120 miles per hour while cruising at a speed of 62 miles per hour that's what happens when you give the japanese something crazy and they take it and just take it to a whole new level bye for now
