Well I got this idea while reading an article of Kitplanes.If planes could fly with a belted VW, could a chopper too can fly? I also thought of the power difference for as planes fly direct drive from the belt,while a chopper's has a transmission and two rotors to spin(the main and the tail). Is there any need to add something to the engine, like a turbocharger or something? And could you convert a VW from gasoline to diesel, gas prices here are so high that it could prick your butt while flying.
