A160 Hummingbird
~ speed rotor system enables Hummingbird to adjust RPM of the rotor blades at different altitudes and cruise speeds
~ during flight, an operator (!) can vary the RPM of the A160's rotors (speed them up or slow them down) at different altitudes
~ this improves overall efficiency and saves fuel
~ a departure from conventional rotor systems, which tend to have a fixed rotor RPM regardless of altitude
~ A160 is 35 feet long with a 36-foot rotor diameter
~ it will fly at an estimated top speed of 140 knots = 259 km/h,
~ at ceilings up to 30,000 feet, which is about 10,000 feet higher than conventional helicopters can fly today
