Rotor Blades for Helicopters and Gyrocopters

Vortech, Inc. proudly presents an outstanding line of

title

For your Homebuilt Helicopter & Gyroplane

Our line of aluminum rotor blades* are, without question, the finest value in the sport rotary-wing industry. These blades are manufactured as a single extrusion—without seams, rivets or bonding of any kind—of high-strength aluminum, providing exceptional performance and reliability plus the greatest strength for their weight of any blades on the market. And yet, they are priced far below the competition. Vortech is now also offering a new line of high-quality, but affordable composite rotorblades. Our composite blades are currently available in a 7" X 10' NACA0012 airfoil, but other sizes will soon be available.

We offer sizes for any homebuilt rotorcraft application—both for the main and tail rotor of helicopters (the NACA 0012 series), or for the main rotor of gyroplanes (the NACA 8-H-12 blades). These blades are retrofittable on such popular helicopters as the RotorWay Scorpion and Exec, the CHR Safari, the PAM-100B Flying Platform, the Commuter, Adams-Wilson Choppy, Windspire Aeros, etc.; and for the wide variety of one- and two-seat gyroplanes. The blades are easily cut to size where required. Further, their “cellular” construction makes mounting and balancing a simple matter.

The cutaway view on the left illustrates the cellular structure of the single extrusion comprising the Vortech rotor blades. This construction yields an amazingly light, yet torsionally rigid rotor system. While this cutaway illustrates an asymmetrical (8-H-12) blade, VI also offers symmetrical (0012) blades.
