1959 - Bölkow BO 102 Helitrainer, Basic helicopter Trainer

The HeliTrainer was not a real helicopter but a trainer that was mounted on a rack. Most of the basic heli- copter flight maneuvers could be learned on it. It was much more cost-effective and undangerous as a real helicopter.  

1960 - Bölkow BO FJ Flying Jeep, Experimental Helicopter

Experimental device for the development of a flying platform. Designed by Dr. Heidelberg. Lift and pro pulsion were supplied by several propellers. The props were driven by compressed air supplied by a compressor on the ground.  

1961 - Bölkow BO 103, Single-Seat single-blade helicopter

The Bo 103 was developed from the Bo 102 HeliTrainer. Special was the single-blade rotor but there was no need for a light single seat helicopter, so the project was discontinued.  

1964 - Bölkow BO 46, Experimental high speed helicopter

The Bo46 was designed around the Derschmidt rotor sys- tem to perform highspeed trials. The rotorblades are moved individually to suppress negative backflow effects during highspeed flight. Technical problems couldn't be solved so the project was shut down.  

1967 - Bölkow BO 105, Light Multirole helicopter / lght Attack Helic.

A light multirole design, it has a new rotorhead construction that enables even aerobatics! It is used in many areas like police, rescue, transport and military, as an attack helicopter and tank hunter.
