L.Opdyke - French Aeroplanes Before the Great War /Schiffer/
The Plaisant rocking-wing monoplane, complete with feather-like wing covering.
L.Opdyke - French Aeroplanes Before the Great War /Schiffer/
One of at least 2 versions of the Plaisant Propulseur Cycloidal propeller arrangement. This one comprises a rotating bar with spinning propellers at each and, the whole thing chain-driven and mounted in what looks like the fuselage of his aeroplane.
L.Opdyke - French Aeroplanes Before the Great War /Schiffer/
Another version of the Plaisant Propulseur Cycloidal system, with a rotating cross with 4 small propellers set into the corners. Note the complex gearing: his 40 hp engine would not have sufficed for all this.
