Personal video from Mr. Dieter Schlüter's personal archive, uploaded with his permission.
Rare footage of the development of the radio control helicopter, showing the "Father of RC Helicopters" in his quest to invent the first mass produced model "Bell Huey Cobra". Many of his inventions are design standards today, including:
- stabilizer bar with paddles (control wings)
- pod and boom design
- belt driven tail
- one piece hingeless centrifugal clutch
- raising/lowering the swashplate for collective pitch
