KTM Ascender Concept

January 19, 2009

ktm_ascender

I <3 flying bikes, so how could I not like this flying contraption built by a bike manufacturer?! Industrial design students at Austria’s FH Joanneum University were instructed to create designs that could logically fit into KTM’s brand 10 years from now, all while keeping with KTM‘s identity. The KTM Ascender concept, designed by Mariko IIjima, Richard Kastner-Puschl & Richard Mohos would be powered by a gas turbine and have a top speed of 120 km/h. [via/via]

    I rode the first version too, it kept turning to the left due to the torque of the single blade tail rotor. We change it to a co-axle counter rotating twin blade configuration and solve the problem. New problem…tail heavy, so we moved the left and right rotors to get the CG correct again.
    (Left and Right rotor are counter rotating if you look at the picture carefully) We further installed 3 gyros to stable the flight characteristic.
    Now I hoover over idiots stuck in traffic jam and pee on them…!
