Is there a video of a helo doing an outside loop?

Let's do a Stall Turn first ...

Check list:

1. Roll Rate
2. Revolutions
3. Sustain Head Speed
4. Negative Pitch
5. Projectile vomit remover from instruments


Cheers,

Dave

closest I can get you is a RC heli doing stuff like that. I dont think a
full sized heli can try it without having a boom strike .

I am thinking that Army tried it with a test bed AH-64 at Edwards AFB
back about a long time ago. I heard that a guy tried it with an AH1 out
of the MACSOG field at Marble Mountain -- he was right over the bay at
Da Nang. The rotor impacted the tail rotor; autorotation into the bay
followed and eventually he went back to civilian life where he belonged.

This is anecdotal however, one of those stories that I remember hearing
in the club -- prefaced by "Now this is No ****".

YMMV

There are Old Pilots and Bold Pilots, but there are NO Old, Bold pilots.

Wouldn't that be termed a "3-D maneuver" which I think, if I am not
mistaken, would be impossible with full-size at the current technologies.
My R/C buddies do it all the time but the lift to weight ratios are a little
different there. I can tell you that if any pilot could handle 3-D, well,
they wouldn't be in a heli lol.

WICKED!!

I would like to see a close-up of his hands at the tranmitter while he is
doing stuff like that.

I can hear it now . . . That guy will start taking helicopter flying lessons
and at some point will say . . . "Hey, watch what I can do with a
helicopter!" But he'll only say it once!
