Here's one for you, is there an R/C helicopter out there that is similar to the one in this link on YouTube...?

Hey buddy.

A long time ago now Jim Morley, the designer of Morley helicopters, built a model Fairey Rotordyne I think it was which had two tail rotors mounted one on either side of the fuselage and the upper main rotor for lift.
If I find photos l post them, but this was a one off own design build that did eventually fly after some initial teething troubles.
Back then of course there was no other electronic stability aids other than tail gyros.

Found some information here, scroll down the page;

I saw this model in action at the Robbe Schluter Cup in the UK and Sandown Park Model Show from memory.

Hello and thanks for the info I found it very interesting indeed. If you ever find out if there is a model out there that's available to the general public at an affordable price let us know...
