Smaller landing area required, even less than needed for a helicopter of the same capacity, saving on land use. A two car garage at home may be adequate for personal aircraft. With less time in flight, there is significant saving in fuel and personnel time, for both passengers and crew. G. Zero pitching moment quality of the Arcopter VTOL arc wing reduces negative lift and induced drag for angle of incidence fixation by the rearward horizontal tail. The ability to fly slowly or hover, back up, move sideways, and resist gusts increases safety in poor visibility and high winds.
Twin engines driving centerline thrust propellers avoid the known hazards of conventional twins.
The arc wings and flaps can be simple fiberglass lay-up in very precise, highly polished female molds. And there need be no complex structural boxes, spars, ribs, bulkheads, stringers, etc. The light disc loading and low strain on the large diameter dual rotation propellers will allow them to be made of lighter weight materials, probably composites.
