I need to get across the United States, my brother invited me out to his place for a vacation, I do not have enough money for the trip, and need to get there soon, I have a lot of scrap metal, mostly aluminum and steel, some tools, and some small engine parts, I have a few mechanical skills and want to build a helicopter to fly across the United States and back, I have never flew anything but how hard can that be to learn, I seen how they fly helicopters on you tube.
I am sure there is someone here who can write a few post with detailed instructions, with step by step processes, to help me know what I need to know in order to build my helicopter, and tell me how to fly it, I do not have the time or inclination to do a whole lot of study or research on the subject of mechanics, hydraulics, how an engine works or runs,and so on, make the instructions easily understandable, I may not understand many of the terms, or the jargon you use to describe what I need, so maybe you can draw a picture for me.
I have a couple of months before I fly off on my journey, but will want to take my first flight in about a month, can you tell me if I can weld my steel parts to the aluminum parts, I have a small gasoline torch which does not use oxygen, and a small soldering iron, which will work best to weld my parts together?
I already know about the safety, so I do not need any of you knot heads out there scolding me on that stupid subject, I made a parachute from a bed sheet, and some rope, and I have a motor cycle helmet.
I am ready to fly I just need you to answer my questions.
