The Challis Heliplane: 300 Mph Tilt Rotor
November 17th, 2008 by BallerRideDesigned to hit speeds up to 300 mph, the Challis Heliplane is a concept aircraft that aims to be the world’s fastest rotorcraft. When produced, the Challis Heliplane will be capable of twice the cruising speed and almost twice the range of a conventional helicopter.
Like other heliplane designs, the Challis will be able to fly in a continuous stable hover and reach high cruising speeds. The simple design will reduce production and maintenance costs, making the Challis a relatively affordable way to book it through the skies.
