Flying Rotor Thing? (that was at FliteFest?)

[Brett_N]

Hey Folks - OK I'm not sure what to call it or what to even google for it, but there was a weird looking flying rotor at FliteFest that pops up in a couple of the videos - it was big - guessing 4 feet or so across (or more) and 4-bladed. Almost like the rotor from a heli came off in flight, but it was built just as a flying rotor.

Anyone know who masterminded that creation and maybe have more info? Looking to build one for shniggles.

Thanks!

Absolutely. @Merv and I helped @NickRehm with it. He was the designer, builder, programmer of the Schredorator. I'm sure he will have his own video posted up at some point. His Fiancé was doing a lot of recording.

Peter had some really great aerial footage of @NickRehm 's beast including the "Final Combat" and the collisions.

Here is my video on the scout. Sadly we forgot to start the GoPro so we did not get 360 video of the crash. Learning opportunities for next year… here is the video!

Awesome build, kill, and story! Thank you for sharing! It is always great to relive moments from FliteFest until we get back next year!
