“The unmanned tiltrotor unparalleled successfully passed the next stage of testing, having completed its first flight. The creator of the device was the innovative design bureau "BP-technology" holding "Russian Helicopters". Interest in the unique development is shown by companies in the oil and gas sector and various departments, ”the release says.

The project is implemented in the framework of the program "Speed". The tests were conducted on the basis of the Skolkovo Innovation Center.

“Work on creating a unique machine began in 2015 year. During this time we have achieved significant results and have already begun the first stage of flight tests, ”the press service of the BP-technology general director Alexander Okhonko quotes.

Many potential customers are already ready to sign a contract for the purchase of this unique machine.

“It is worth noting that a number of potential customers are already ready to acquire this unmanned complex for tasks related to monitoring and environmental protection in places where take-off from the runway is impossible. The complex can monitor smoke in forests and dense urban development, carry out aerial photography, monitor oil and gas facilities, and deliver medicines to remote areas, ”the message said.

Help "BP": “Convertible is a special class of rotary-winged technology, which has a number of advantages compared to traditional aircraft, made by plane or helicopter scheme. The convertoplanes make it possible to carry out a vertical take-off and landing on space-limited sites and at the same time transport passengers or cargo at a greater speed and a greater distance than traditional helicopter technology. ”

            In order for him to become a military man, they must first make fun of him on tests for professional suitability. And according to the results we can talk about something. For the civilian version there will be less bullying. Well, here, it seems, the guys decided not to complicate their life too much and got to receive an order from the Moscow Region and then develop it, already have some experience.
            With civilian, there is also a problem - price: it should suit the buyer, despite production costs (and they are expected to be considerable). So, the guys have secured a fun life.

              Russian Helicopters were developing on an initiative basis and are in a great hurry. They have planned a ladder for the development of PBLA 300 kg (pictured), then 2 tons, then a manned system. "Izhmash" steps on their heels
              "Next year, Izhmash will present unmanned convertiplanes. The devices can be adopted by the Russian army." - 26.10.2015
              True, the Izhmashevsky UAV weighs only 7 kg and can be launched by hand, a payload of 1 kg.

              I absolutely agree with you. Such an apparatus could have been created 20 years ago, technology was quite possible. And then they really made a toy, praised themselves, the people picked up and carried in their arms and Skolkovo in the subject with nano plastic. Hurray comrades! Well, vosche the jolly began, probably soon they are hanging medals in the Kremlin. Ugh, it's sickening to listen to. It's a shame for the state !!! If they did something serious, really useful at least for the military. The Americans move the landing party on tiltrotors, although there are problems in operation, but the devices themselves work, and here there is a circle of AVIAMODELISM, Christmas tree sticks. I hope at least that the Armata tank and the new infantry fighting vehicles will not become just ghosts of Red Square and a virtual simulator of tank shooters. There was a lot of noise about these products, and the products themselves are very futuristic, the same armor of the Armata tank is covered with some kind of thin casing incomprehensible and protective attachments are not visible, to be honest, some kind of nonsense, and some niches on the tower, quite a hole for hitting anti-tank shells, it was already like that - a tower with a lure and without it. Interestingly, video cameras for the same Armata in Russia will be produced, or they will all be imported from beyond the hillock. They don't have their own element base and are not foreseen, all were buried by the successful oligarchs, piece goods do not count. I am sure that the element base, the elements of mechanics, the gyro sensors for this tiltrotor are completely foreign, or who thinks that on the K155 mikruhs of the series everyone has been playing !? They do not do this and will not do that. Without its own, nonsense element base, all this is the same T-72 and the like can still be produced, but something more serious is not true. The Elbrus-type processor and the like are in the trash, the last century and the technology of piece production and enough to calm yourself down, you need to move forward and not arrange fireworks from hats. Unfortunately, we do not develop software for the whole world and hardware for computers. Take any consumer electronic device, and I think the military is the same, and there is a microcircuit, a processor from the Americans, or a clone from China. And CHINA is not at all a friend to me or to you !!! Minus the "gentlemen", neighing and dispersed, and in fact, none of us is capable of doing something in order for the state to get up from its knees and develop the economy, the helm is not in our hands.

        For that, the Americans had problems with it. Often it turned over due to instability on hovering and maneuvers at low altitude. Lost a lot of cars. Why such calmness among the authors is surprising. By the way, there is no wing mechanization on it.

      In 1972, specialists of the MVZ them. M.L. Mila, under the leadership of M.N. Tishchenko, developed, as an initiative, a project proposal for the Mi-30 transport and passenger tiltrotor.
      ...
      In 1991, OKB specialists designed three types of propeller planes: Mi-30S, Mi-30D and Mi-30L, with a carrying capacity of 3.2, 2.5 and 0.95t and a passenger capacity of 21, 11 and 7 people, respectively.

    In general, at the first stage, a convertiplane weighing 300kg is being developed, apparently the one in the photo. then it will be a mass of 2t. well, and so will be manned. I did not expect another from Skolkovo.

      Skolkovo, as I understand it, only provided a site for testing - the area is probably large, but this was limited to participation.

      Dust away from the old drawings. Started with a small copy.
      A copy was made by modelers from the former Moscow Palace of Pioneers.
      For me, this is another attempt to splurge, and nothing more.
      The mention of Skolkovo is another confirmation that the next cut of funds for R&D is coming.
      Similar radio-controlled toys without a special pump were shown by clubs of Young technicians, during the period 1965-1985, if anyone remembers.

    “On February 17, during the mass landing of airborne assault units of the Airborne Forces from Il-76 aircraft to the landing site in the Pskov Region, an emergency occurred - two paratroopers converged in the air at an altitude of about 400 meters. Thanks to courageous and competent actions to help each other in the air, the contract soldiers who found themselves in a difficult situation managed to overcome it successfully, ”the Ministry of Defense said.
    The department emphasized that for the skillful and courageous actions in a situation involving a risk to life, the military personnel were awarded medals by the decision of the Airborne Forces Commander Colonel General Vladimir Shamanov “Army General V.F. Margelov. "

        Vertical jet thrust will also "warm" the glider during takeoff and will be during landing. So a tiltrotor on jet engines is unlikely.

      C'mon to tell you. You in Israel have enough information about what non-forest epithets the V-22 OSPREY earned in the U.S. Congress in considering cases of financing and finalizing this machine. The machine has not been completed since 1989, so it only has one export contract.

      There are three options for creating the rotation of the blade crown of a flying saucer with horizontal and vertical thrust from a turbojet engine:
      1) As in the German flying saucer of 1944. Probably there was a gearbox lowering the speed of the gas turbine turbojet engine to drive the disk-shaped body into rotation with rotary blades located around the perimeter of the body.
      2) The exhaust jet of the dual-circuit turbojet engine, which is deflected by the rotary dampers (with cooling of the exhaust jet by mixed external air from the secondary circuit). The cooled exhaust is directed into the wing-shaped wing body, followed by the exhaust from the disk-shaped rotating body into the atmosphere through the tangential nozzles on the surface of the disk-shaped body.
      3) Rotary nozzle as in F-35B. The exhaust from the 90 ° nozzle rotated downward passes through the blade ring. The blades of this crown are ground in a horizontal plane. The ends of the horizontal crown blades are rigidly connected to a rotating disk-shaped body, equipped with rotary blades of a helicopter type around the perimeter. The payload cabin is mounted on a thrust ring bearing on the axis of the rotating casing. At high flight speeds, the casing blades are deployed in the horizontal equatorial plane of the casing.
      In all cases, it is possible to use a hybrid gas turbine power plant with a synchronous multipolar electric generator with a permanent rare-earth magnet rotor to recover rotation energy (like an electric motor-wheel in Elon Mask hybrid electric vehicles) of the body blades for autorotation at high horizontal flight speeds.

    The note is not very serious. No parameters, no photos, no videos are given. Special Economic Zones - Skolkovo, Zhiguli Valley, as well as Rusnano, so far more resemble soap bubbles. Well, Rosoboronexport is also not bad at squeezing money. When he took a VAZ under his wing, this management did not slightly milk the auto giant. The guys cheated from the heart.

    I can’t understand why a small convertoplane "unparalleled" is better than an ordinary plane. A small airplane also does not need a concrete GDP for 3 km. An elastic band is launched and flies reliably and far, and sits on a parachute.
    Once the suspicious phrase "unparalleled" and "started development in 2015" and have already done so, it suggests that Chubais in Rusnano again sawed money.

    In its current form, a tiltrotor is a dangerous thing. There were so many accidents with mattresses, and we also had similar machines. It is possible to build a tiltrotor in a slightly different way. When switching to airplane mode, witns add up like 2 fans and retract into a niche in the wing. Further, such an apparatus can fly and land like a regular plane. Designing such a thing will be extremely difficult, but the prospects will open up enormous. Yes, and in the event of an accident in a helicopter mode, such a device could drop its blades and plan on an airplane.

    Our learned to stabilize an unmanned tiltrotor on ICE? Hardly. This did not work either for Koreans (see photo in other comments) or Bell. Both programs are closed. So what flew to Skolkovo? And did it fly?

    Namely, the project! We have these projects, that in the union, that now - like a fool wrappers, everyone has an entire album. What's the point? Osprey in a large series and flies and not bad, for example. The Koreans’s UAV envelope has been flying for 5 years now, and not a layout, and more than once every 10 years. These **** people, together with the redhead, are in the firebox, under the life-giving napalm

    The point is that a tiltrotor is economically disadvantageous. Therefore, nowhere in the world, except the United States, which prints bucks, is not widely used.

    Even Koreans who do not have any particularly outstanding aircraft manufacturing school can design and build a tiltrotor, he just didn’t give up to anyone. Helicopters are much cheaper, planes are much faster and more load-bearing.
    Convertiplanes have their own very, very narrow niche of the necessary compromise.

    The topic of the article is a small aircraft with specific tasks, the operating cost of which is measured by completely different figures.

    PS But the screech of all-shiver is traditionally present. Where without a squeal.
