The Newest Technology



GEN H-4 Helicopter

The next time you hop into your car, you might consider using this future technology. Gennai Yanagisawa has invented the world's smallest one-man helicopter.

The GEN H-4 is a 75 kg (165 lbs) aluminum-framed copter with twin rotors powered by two 10hp engines.

Each engine has independent ignition, a carburetor, starter and clutch. It can fly with just one engine so the probability of total engine failure is remote. But for added safety, it also comes with a ballistic parachute.

To fly the copter, you take a seat and grab the control bar that is positioned in front of you. The handle bar displays a tachometer, starter and throttle lever.

To fly forward you pull the handle bar towards you. To go backwards you push the handle forward. Move the handle left to fly right and right to fly left. The throttle lever controls the rise and descent. The maximum flight speed is 50 kilometers per hour ( 31 mph).

Yanagisawa is planning a trip to Italy to fly his new invention. It is to honor the inventor Leonardo da Vinci who was the first person to envision the invention of helicopters. It could only fly for one hour in a five gallon fuel tank. It also could fly as fast as 55 mph. It can carry up to 200 pounds. The gas it needs is the mixture of automobile gasoline and two stroke oil. It is being made in the Japanese Alps near Nagano, Japan. It cost up to US $59,500 dollars. It is going to be released in 2025.

  1. I really like this helicopter it looks awesome and a incredible invention. So this contraption comes out in 2025 do you think it will be invented by somebody else before 2025? I want to know if you can put a bigger gas tank so it'll fly for a longer time. :) Nice job Angel-Monica
