You understand what happens when u increase torque in this "tilt bladeholder" design?
One blade will pitch up, the other down. -> imbalance.

From the simplicity and the transfer of mechanical coplexity into elecronic complexity it is genial. But because of the vibration problem i think the design has no future.

Is what I'm doing helping?

Yes.

Those FP blades bring back some good memories. Danger. Do not fly with borken blades.

This is definitely not going to scale up to large R/C helis which already have all sorts of blade flap and lead/lag going on with the rotor head but I can see it working well for very small micro sized helicopters. I could be very useful for "practical" stuff like relatively disposable micro surveillance drones where simplicity and durability is more important than aerobatic performance. A coaxial using this sort of head would be less complex and more compact than a multirotor.

Does anyone know, if the stl’s of the 45 degree rotating fit mechanism, have been released by the creator of this video.

Thank you.
