ABSTRACT:
A rotary flying toy is disclosed including a rotor having a plurality of radially extending generally horizontal blades adapted to rotate about the vertical axis of the rotor to provide vertical lift. A separate hand-held launcher is provided and includes an electric motor for accelerating the rotor to a rotational velocity sufficient for the rotor to fly when separated from the launcher. Inclined surfaces act to retain the rotor on the launcher until the desired rotational speed is reached and to eject the rotor from the launcher.
