C-10 Buzzard

2,317 COMPASS  2.8 years ago

The Buzzard is a counter-rotating rotary craft designed to assist airplane pilots in transitioning from planes to helicopters. It’s design allows for high manuverability and high forward airspeed, however, the lack of a tail-rotor prevents it from being able to rotate along the yaw axis while in a hover. That is if you can hover it in the first place.
