Title: Next generation heli

Funny looking tail rotor design.  Wonder if it only provides forward thrust, and tail stabilization is some kind of air vent design.

Looks like a coax rotor, perhaps that takes care of the tail stab
resembles a motor on a blue whale with a large fishtail

Oops, I missed that it is a coax ! That explains the tail stabilization part.
