Draganflyer Helicopter

Hello,
I thought I would add if someone would be willing to try to make a model, I have a digital camera and would be able to take pictures of the actual model. If you do not know what a draganflyer is you can see one here,

My dream is to have this model flying in a indoor setting. That is where I am learning to fly the real thing, in my living room. Landing on tables, couch, and chairs is cool. But in order to advance I need to fly "nose in" and I do not have the coordination yet to do this. I also think other people would enjoy flying a draganflyer simulator, it is a rather unique model.

I wish I had the experience to try and design the model for the simulator myself, but It it is beyond my abilities.

Take Care...... Sim On!

Oh, have a very nice Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Hi,
Would anyone be willing to create a model of the Draganflyer if I PAID them for their trouble? I have a digital camera and can supply any views that would be needed. I have PayPal!

Thanks, Louie

Hi,

I will give it a try. Can you email me (fmsmodels@hotmail.com with some photos please. I need a top-down shot, side-on shot and any other views that you think may help me.

Hope that I can help you

So did anyone ever come up with a draganflyer model? I've just purchased the draganflyer IV and am anxious to practice for less (ie. break fewer rotors). So far, I can't find a simulator for this thing anywhere - free or otherwise. I think the main problem for creating the model lies in getting the control reactions correct. There's no need to model in gyros as these only correct for inconsistancies that won't likely be in a simple sim. However, I really think this would help with flight in various orientations, regardless of realism.
