| A model of the projected V-50 tandem-rotor army combat helicopter. G.Kuznetsov "OKB Kamov - 50 years", 1999
| Stingray, the Helicopter Guy, Debntrav(@)wbtv.net, 19.05.2008 Page lacks info. Here is info I wrote for wikipedia:
The V-50 was an armed tandem-rotor transport helicopter project from Kamov, with a projected speed of 400km/h. The project was abandoned in the late 1960s and only a model exists.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamov_V-50 | | john, 15.05.2008 The blades can never hit; one rotor turns in the opposite direction. They can occupy the same plane (some actually do) without interference. Counter-rotating blades also cancel the torque reaction that usually requires a tail-rotor. Even twin engine designs like Mi-12 and V-22 Osprey have linked rotors. | | red, ererer(@)yahoo.com, 19.02.2008 Actually the blades are lifted in flight and are set to a specific angle so as not to hit | | patrick, 26.07.2007 it looks like the blades will hit each other |
