Patent GB-1917-114329

"Toy and model flying-machines; ... An aeroplane or seaplane is propelled, or the propulsion is assisted, by a wind-driven paddle wheel geared to a screw-propeller. The invention may be applied to toy aeroplanes and seaplanes or to the driving gear of toy locomotives."

• PBM believes this is not a helicopter exactly ; the rotating propeller on top is not providing LIFT, but rather it has cups for blades so as to assist FORWARD motion. Misclassified as CPC B64C27/04?
• The inventor emphasizes that it works or would work on toys. I wonder if it could possibly spin fast enough to really help.
• Tech class CPC B64C27/04: Helicopters
• Inventor location: 9 Paradise Place, off Golbourne Street, Warrington ; Messenger
