The Lite Machines

Model 110

helicopter is the first mass-produced radio controlled

micro helicopter in the world. It is intended as an introductory helicopter for those

modelers intrigued by helicopters and helicopter flight, but unable to justify the

significant investment in time and money required for traditional helicopter models.

The

Model 110

can withstand tip-overs and minor crashes with little or no damage.

Many flight skills such as basic hovering, nose-in hovering, low speed maneuvering,

forward and backward flight, and pirouettes can be mastered without busting the

family budget with a larger, more complex machine.

The

Model 110

utilizes advanced aerodynamics that enable it to fly on 1/10th of a

horsepower which is roughly the power consumed by a 75 watt light bulb. In comparison,

.30 to .60 size model helicopters use one to two horsepower (10 to 20 times more).

The fixed-pitch main rotor of the

Model 110

helicopter combines

Subrotor

technology and free-flapping, foldable rotor blades in a rugged, high lift rotor system

with fewer than half the number of parts found in collective-pitch helicopters. Main

rotor lift is controlled by changing the rotational speed of the main rotor rather than

varying the pitch of the individual rotor blades (such as with “collective-pitch” type

main rotor systems). Fixed-pitch main rotors are substantially simpler than

collective-pitch systems and are ideal for beginners. Collective-pitch main rotors

allow for advanced aerobatics and engine-off autorotation maneuvers that are

typically flown by more experienced pilots.

The tail rotor mechanism of the

Model 110

helicopter incorporates a light-weight

Arlton Gyro

stabilizer which eliminates the need for an expensive electronic gyro

and extra capacity receiver batteries. The unique central keel fuselage structure is

simple, strong and easy to assemble and repair - a far cry from the fragile

construction of many electric helicopters.

Designed on modern computer-aided design (CAD) systems and computer-aided

manufacturing (CAM) systems, the structure of the

Model 110

helicopter

incorporates eight types of engineering plastics, four aluminum alloys, several high

strength steels, aircraft plywood and multiple protective surface coatings.

Although beginners can successfully build and fly their

Model 110

, the process can

be made significantly easier with the help of an experienced modeler and instructor

pilot. Lite Machines recommends that all beginners join the Academy of Model

Aeronautics (AMA). The AMA is a non-profit organization that provides services for

modelers. The AMA can help you locate a model aircraft club in your area with an

instructor pilot (you can also check with your local hobby shop). Membership benefits

include a monthly magazine and liability insurance. Many flying clubs require an AMA

modeler’s license to operate a model on their flying field. For information on the AMA

call (765) 287-1256, or write to:
