Eye witness report from Europe:

| I saw the revolution "live" in St. Johann (Austria in April). I got also a
"power presentation" with Yamada ST91, Hatori 900, 30% coolpower, 1900 rpm,
690er X-Blades, 14 degree pitch!
I never saw any helicopter with this performance... It is like a rocket...
Hard to believe and hard to beat, even from electric helicopters...
The team-pilots where doing most of the 3D demonstrations flights with only
about 70% of possible engine performance, because of the 3D style is
changing in germany to a smooth, acrobatic style. 70% performance is also
almost enough for competitors...
I even saw the new MP91 from Henseleit. But this heli won't have the
performance like a REVOLUTION regarding to its limited rotor diameter size
(also a small heli doesn't look as fast as a bigger one).

I wonder what it would be like with a Plettenberg motor... There was some show in Europe and they were demonstrating that the Pletti HP370/40/A2 could run a washing machine's tumble dry cycle no problem...  |
