SynchroLite ~ Rotor - Disk
Overview:
Data, drawings and computations related to the SynchroLite's twin rotor disks
Just about all of the following currently relates to the 2-blade rotor.

Blade Elements in Hover Calculations are based on a SynchroLite's single disk and half the gross weight. I.e. intermeshing of disks is not incorporated into the algorithms, at present anyway.
Tip speed ratio
[mu = Vfwd / OmegaR] is 92.83 ft/sec / 600 ft/sec = 0.163
