The name UCUC means 'FlyFly' which is also a name for the Lady Bug in Turkish UCUC folds its wings just like the lady bug does Thanks to its simple design and affordable price part 103 compliant UCUC can start a new generation of air sports and a new generation of personal air transport Our design is a single rotor monocopter design that looks like a classical helicopter A single top rotor coupled with a smaller antitorque rotor Unlike the classical helicopter design there is no cyclic or collective controls Instead the power is used by means of changing the rotor RPM Tail rotor is tilted for the purpose of control No complex mechanical connections No flight computer to program which is vulnerable to hacking No fairings to make The simplest and easiest design to build Still the easiest to control Takes up the space of a motorbike with easy blade folding or removing Safe with a good degree of autorotation capability and motor redundancy Optionally hybrid or fully electric with a choice of ranges Speed boost possibility with gimballing tail rotor A total of 60hp peak power system, an average of 45hp power use Can be sold as a kit helicopter to be fitted with a power plant of users' choice

Action Plan

Sponsorship & Investor support will be sought Construction will start using inexpensive materials like steel, plastic and automobil or motorcycle engines and those parts will be replaced with aviation grade parts afterwards Weight lightening measures will be taken at later stages The machine will be trialed by controlling remotely but flight demonstration can be human piloted Experimental certification will be saught IP protection measures will be taken after the first succesfull flight
