Description: Bell’s FCX-001 Concept Helicopter Showcases Future Technology

Bell has developed a concept helicopter mockup to showcase some of the ideas that they’re working on for future aircraft, such as morphing rotor blades, an electric anti-torque system contained within the tailboom, and a single-pilot control system with augmented reality. The company’s future products may not look quite like this, but the technologies may appear sooner than you might think.
