Another weight shift helicopter.  The idea has been around since Lilienthal

They did a good job on this one.

"Otto Lilienthal (23 May 1848 – 10 August 1896) was a German pioneer of aviation  who became known as the /Glider King He was the first person to make well-documented, repeated, successful gliding flights  Newspapers and magazines published photographs of Lilienthal gliding, favorably influencing public and scientific opinion about the possibility of flying machines becoming practical. On August 9, 1896, his glider stalled and he was unable to regain control. Falling from about 15 m (50 ft), he broke his neck and died the next day, 10 August, 1896."

I used the idea on my tilt rotor VTOL.
