ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a land and flying vehicle with its tubular frame, 2 main rotors with blades and adjustable pitch-propellers, with its drive propelled by the force of a hydraulic turbine located at the end of its driving shaft. Said force is propelled by a very high pressure pump driven by an internal combustion engine or jet engine. Streamlined pusher propellers (already patented) located on the side are driven by hydraulic turbines located at the shaft end of rotating propellers from 0° to 180°, once they are extended.Drawings describe the revolutionary design and unable the installation of said system on some current helicopter. By said method the present drive assembly, gimbal joints, gear boxes, are replaced with turbine drives with smooth and lightweight start. Said method can be adapted on running vehicles, including trains, whereof the designs and applications are reserved.
