What about the Carter Copter, guys?  I'd bet on it if it had an actual

engine.

A three rotor might make this one actually work, if they can make the prop
hang together and keep from vibrating the pilots into unconsiousness.  :-)

They are saying the right things about the difficulty of slowing the rotor

cruise speed, drag etc are pure hype.  Anyone want to bet on the Carter
Copter round the world flight?
