Notes:

There will be cross-coupling in the two rotor disks of the SynchroLite, but theoretically little of it should show up in the flight characteristics or the cyclic controls, because there will be self-canceling between the rotors. The UniCopter's advantage of no coning angle and therefore minimal cross coupling may not br that big an advantage. OR could the SyncroLite compound the problem by causing an oscillation between the two rotors?
