Having just watched the Roton rollout (www.rollout.org), I must
say that this prototype, at least, doesn't look exactly like the
"artist's impressions" on the Rotary Rocket site. The top of the
rocket, where the rotors are attached, did not look as if it would
support the idea of launching with the rotors folded down. I wonder
if they ditched that idea, and plan to launch with rotors out?
Wouldn't that put a lot of stress on the hub?
