Konner Amphibious Turbine Helicopter Will Allow You To Land And Takeoff On Water 

Because extremely expensive and very impractical….

Because we don't all have a money tree..

because were not all made of money

I'd like to as well. There are two schools near me, problem is that they don't rent helicopters to even licensed pilots once you're done. I'm not going to own a helicopter so it would just be a money suck. I think that the electric quadcopter designs will be a bigger thing in the near future, i'll have to wait for those to become more available.

Konner k2

water landing coming in December 2023! Unluckily we had some slowing down in the manufacturing/engineering process because of lack of employees both from our company and some of the company we get minor components from. While the Konner K1 and K2 are helicopters we manufacture and actively sell we gave those two models priority!

Actually diesel is very similar to JetA so teoretically every turbine can burn diesel.

Most turbines will burn diesel. The Safran turbines in the helicopter I fly will even burn MoGas.

The turbine was developed 20 years ago but still to these days it’s very technologically advanced , the range of our helicopters if between 350-480k , we do believe to have a similar price for the konner k3 (amphibious)

Looks as if someone’s been eyeballing the Hill… Can Konner kompete?! (See what I did there) 😁

@@francescoranchi3689 Are you looking at supplying the turbine as a separate piece? The ultra-light single seater helis I'm interested in are using turbines designed in the 60s. With no spare parts availability (unless your a machinist). Seems like it would be a good way to get more hours on this unknown turbine.

Perhaps brotha man

That’s true, but we have 2 electric hydrojet motors that will prevent you from spinning.

I believe that is a Konner K2, which is another similar (non amphibious) helicopter that is manufactured by the same company

@@evanhill110 Thanks man! I was really just, “a messin’ wit da Mojo.” 😁👍🏼

I will change the thumbnail today, just for you!

@@mojogrip 😂👍🏼 Thank you for your prompt attention to this seriously egregious oversight! 😎 Love your channel!

That is available , it’s required by law to be verified

Somewhere between 400k , still prototyping so not sure

the Robinson R22 consumes about 45L per hour and uses 100LL aviation fuel with an average cost of 7.20$ per 1 gallon (3,8L) with a total cost of ˜85$ per hour, while the K1/K2/K3 uses 60/65L per hour of car diesel with an average cost of 4.80$ per 1 gallon (3,8L) with a total cost of ˜83$ per hour, so in terms of costs it is similar. The density of AVGAS 100ll is of 6lbs/u.s. gallon (2,7Kg/3,8l -> 1 liter = 0,71Kg), giving the robinson R22 a total "weight loss" per every flight hour of 32kg, The density of CAR DIESEL is of 0,8Kg/1 liter, giving the Konner TK-250 turbine a total "weight loss" per every flight hour of ˜50Kg. Therefore every flight hour of the TK-250 turbine is of 18Kg more in terms of fuel density. Since you are comparing only the engine and not the entire helicopter, it is needed to say that the robinson R22's engine max power output is of 131hp at peak, while the TK250 turbine (of konner K1 helicopter) is 250shp, nearly the double! Also when comparing the helicopters the "extra weight" of the fuel consumption of the Konner K1 is balanced by the empty weight of the helicopter, with a total empty weight of 352Kg for the konner K1 (compared to the 400Kg of the robinson). The R22 has a 75 liters tank -> 52Kg (Flight time ˜1.6 hours) The K1 has a 120 liters tank-> 95Kg (Flight time of ˜2 hours) , 95Kg (fuel weight K1) - 52Kg (fuel weight R22) = 43Kg of less weight fuel for the R22, with also less flight time, but if the R22 is 43Kg lighter in terms of fuel, it is also 48Kg heavier (empty weight), therefore my conclusion is: The Konner K1 is 5Kg lighter than the R22, with nearly double the SHP and more flight time ! I compared the R22 and Konner K1 as they are finished product with trustable datas in terms of weight, consumption ecc. About the Konner K3 is the video, the final weight etc. is not known but will likely be a bit heavier than the R22 (or maybe not.....) but it's a different type of helicopter and helicopter cathegory as it's experimental and not ultralight

me too

If the French and British can overcome their horrid mechanical engineering reputations, there is hope for the Italians. But with Italian design, at least you’ll look good on your way down…

Probably executive toy, sadly.

No upside on the surface 🤦
