Description of the model

Electric indoor helicopter

The Apache RC helicopter is modelled after the Apache AH-64 Longbow helicopter. The model, similar to its great archetype,
likewise permits control around two major axes so that vertical climbing and descent, turning flight as well as the flight
directions forwards and backwards are possible.
Acrobatic ability and top speed were dispensed with in the development of this model, since these features are only
of subordinate significance for an indoor helicopter. Instead the model was conceived to be distinguished by its simple
handling, stable hover flight and precise response to the control. These properties are indispensable for a model helicopter
developed for indoor flights.
Instead of the individual principal rotors with four rotor blades of the Apache AH-64 Longbow, the model consequently has
two coaxially ordered rotors with an opposed direction of rotation. In this principle the torques of the two principal
rotors of the fuselage are mutually cancelled, the model therefore does not turn around the
vertical axis and therefore manages to stabilise the flight direction without a tail rotor. The tail
rotor on the model has no function.
The upper rotor with a fixed angle of incidence of the rotor blades serves as the bearing rotor
and ensures the lifting effect. A paddle bar with centrifugal weights stabilises the rotation. The
centrifugal weights are found on the two ends of the paddle bar, in the plane of rotation of the
principal rotor and vertical to the longitudinal axis of the rotor blades.
The large distance of the bearing rotor to the model aircraft's centre of gravity ensures a
relatively intrinsically stable flight position.
The lower rotor is the steering rotor, with the change of direction carried out by a change of the speed compared to the
bearing rotor (tail) and the angle of incidence of the rotor blades (roll). The steering rotor is also stabilised with a paddle bar
with centrifugal weights.
