Gen 4 single seat helicopter

[Davey]

GEN Corporation developed GEN-H4, a compact single-seat helicopter. Equipped with a miniature engine of 125cc (8 horse power) and two propellers, it can reach a flying speed of 90 km (56 miles) per hour. At the moment GEN sells it at 3.6M yen and organizes demo flights as well as training courses (charged separately, of course).

This really looks like Inspecter Gadjet!!!!

There's also an English version of the site. However, like many bilingual sites in Japan, the content is a little more complete on the Japanese side.

The impression I got is that one shouldn't expect a heck of a lot out of this helicopter in its current stage of development and that development is proceeding at an almost glacial pace. The helicopter looks to be a hobby sideline of a bigshot in the company. They have other activities that provide the bulk of their business.

By the way, it uses 4 engines, not a single 125cc engine.
