So if I want a faster helicopter, do I get that with more blades? Recognizing of course that with more blades I probably need a more powerful engine, my power linkages will all have to be stronger to support the increased forces, I will have to carry more fuel or compromise endurance, and elements of the air-frame itself may need to be strengthened ... and as I am adding all this weight there is probably some point of diminishing returns where my aircraft stops getting faster and/or starts loosing other performance strengths?
Maybe I'll just leave this sort of good idea stuff to an actual aerospace engineer.
