"Helicopters for Everybody", after working at the Columbus, Ohio and Pittsburgh for around 25 years, Charles Lin, founder of Yoshine Helicopters decided in the late 1990's to make the easy, safe, economical to fly Helicopters so that Everybody can fly to work:
By 1992, the first of such a “Helicopter” was complete and sold to a UCLA professor in LA for commuting to campus from his suburban hill home where he also had horses and swimming pool.
In 1994, the improved first such a personal helicopter made its maiden flight in Florida at the "EAA" Airshow, demonstrating the tiny helicopter's "autorotation" capability being able to land safelywhen the engine quits from as low as10 to 25 feet! See the following video:
“Autorotation" is an inherent characteristic and ability of a “helicopter”, as learned from a toy "BambooCopter”. Once you've learned and mastered the autorotation procedure, you will be able to land a helicopter safely, when the power "quits", even in the very low height of 10 to 25 feet, you can still control and land a helicopter, safely !
In 1996, Charles Lin was invited to the "Monte Carlo Yacht & Helicopter Show" where Prince Rainier of Monaco happened to have come personally to witness the Personal Helicopter presented locally by our European sales partner：
In 1999, 2-seat version were developed with the FAA approval as an “ultralight helicopter” trainers.
1999年，在各國需求的及FAA的批准下，雙座 “警用” 訓練直升機，開始外銷歐美紐澳印度等國：
In 2002, with help from AIDC, Yoshine's first "Coaxial Unmanned Helicopter" took off in Taichung, Taiwan, and Yoshine was invited to exhibit at the HeliTech 2003, in Duxford, UK.
