BTW I was thinking we might get a group buy from Hurley
Engineering on cut down 13B e-shafts and counter weights.
Lets say the cost is $300 for those parts. Then you could build
an all aluminum (roughly 200 pound) one rotor p-port for about
$8500 with Tracy PSRU. 3,000 for the end housings, 1,000 for
new p-port rotor housing, 3,000 for the PSRU and a 1,000 for
miscellaneous stuff.
A minor correction. Measurements I made indicate with the lightest
available rotors and maximum counterweights you still have to add
mass to the counterweights, not cut them down.
