Agree. I’ll never choose to travel in one. They don’t “want” to fly or glide like a winged aircraft. And you need another rotor just to counteract the main rotor’s reactional torque. And if either stops working, you’re going down… Nah - not for me.

Yeah, failure mode is not good.

Gyrocopters seem cool though.

Yeah, like a helicopter but not - more akin to a rotating wing.
