Bell FCX-001 Future of Flight

Explore the potential for flight, brought to life. The Bell FCX-001 is a window to new a world of aviation—inspired by you, your pilots and your passengers. A true concept aircraft, it combines our rich history with your vision of the future.

The Bell FCX-001 is an American conceptual helicopter design proposed by Bell Helicopter. It was first presented to the public at Heli-Expo 2017 in Dallas on March 7, 2017

On March 7, 2017, Bell Helicopter presented a conceptual, futuristic looking aircraft. The mock-up presented is configured for eight passengers, but will be capable of accommodating up to 12.[1] On top of the aircraft are five "morphing" main rotor blades which aim to allow the tip of each blade to move between different flight regimes.[2] This feature is supposed to maximize efficiency and performance and reduce noise. The airframe is slightly bigger than that of a Bell 412 Wiki Link

Our flight plan for innovation

• Explore the potential for flight, brought to life. The Bell FCX-001 is a window to new a world of aviation—inspired by you, your pilots and your passengers. A true concept aircraft, it combines our rich history with your vision of the future.

Hybridized Propulsion

• Combines advanced thermal engine cores for the main propulsion with, for example, electric distribution and motors to drive the anti-torque system for more control and simpler vehicle operations and maintenance.)

3

dvanced Anti-Torque Concept

• Bell is developing new anti-torque systems that will change the safety, noise and performance parameters of vertical lift aircraft forever. In this example our anti-torque system is embedded in the tail boom for enhanced safety, providing thrust vectoring capability for control.

4

Morphing Rotor Blades

• Morphing structural geometries will allow aircraft to optimize performance in different flight regimes. Bell is a pioneer in this area having developed the tiltrotor concept of one geometry for helicopter mode flight and a completely different geometry for airplane mode flight.

In 1952, the U.S. Army identified a requirement for a new helicopter to serve as medical evacuation (MEDEVAC), instrument trainer, and general utility aircraft.
