How the Raven R44 Helicopter Works

[tobiarce]

Your name should be marshal brainles not marshal brain, Fuck in hell.

[brpd2579]

You did not explain how it works ...... IDIOT!!

[wowobbsessedkid]

sure you can fly over traffic... but where do you park it

[vid30critic]

CORRECTION: It USED to cost about $30 to fill up your Honda Civic.

[viswas04]

Change the title!

[Pawsona]

No, thats not "how the R44 works" thats the differences between a Helicopter and a car! Which I already knew...

[SuperEvo1990]

for excellent explanation make animation that "how helicopter works" it sucks

[loumidis15]

i prefer the CIVIC

[TheyHateCuzImBlack]

no shit it cost more than a hinda civic... ITS A FUCKING HELICOPTER

[lp3471208]

@TheyHateCuzImBlack hindi?really?

[TheyHateCuzImBlack]

@lp3471208 honda. there.

[Aldurnamiyanrandvora]

Wrong question much. The movie says 'how', but it really is 'what'

[MetaView7]

disappointed about the vid content

[LaVacaLoca57]

Change the title. It has nothing to do with how it works. Lame.

[NowLifeStarts]

Why do they keep comparing a helicopter to a fucking Honda Civic? What a piece of shit video.

[cashman156]

Yum yum...if only money was no obstacle, ( it is...so I'll carry on dreaming ! ) 

[paasch53]

This video is right on. It demonstrates exactly what it is that makes any aircraft fly...Money!!

It is funny that Robinsons are the price point helicopter and all they talk about is cost.

[clubcar98]

I knew this was also bullshit when I clicked on it...but thats why I did. Just to leave this nasty comment.

First, why in the FUCK do we compare a Civic and a Helicopter...this is probably one of the many reasons you have these comments of people saying your full of shit. You talked about the price, and the features. How about, idk, umm, telling us how it works? Boy, what a concept that would be...!

[urigotliv]

In Israel a Honda Civic can cost like a R-44 in america, because the corrupted government Impose taxation like communists.

[looneycrewvideos]

It doesn't tell you how it works at all.

[energetic23]

no it doesn't works that way. It's business that way. It works differently with moving parts and tail wings and all

[yusuf916]

FUCK THIS GUY !!!!

[greenjeansmjr]

Good God...is this crap still on here?

CHANGE THE TITLE. ARE YOU EFFING STUPID, OR JUST TO LAZY TO ACTUALLY HAVE A TITLE THAT CORRELATES TO THE DAMN VIDEO?Morons.Douchebags.Twats, etc. etc. i feel awful. I'm sorry. (dipshits)

[TheyTookMyWoody]

This is great if you are looking for information about R44's, but not so good if you are trying to learn what the title suggests......

[BigGhimself]

so it works how you idiots?

[avitech77]

nice comparison analysis

[RemoSC49]

This didn't tell me a damn thing on how it works. Just how expensive it is. What a lame video

[MASSEY4201]

your better off building your own .. The people who build those helicopters are all idiots and i ve seen more than one infraction of the rules there

[dirtTdude]

ok... now i know everything i need to know to build and fly my own R44

[masteryoburgs]

THIS SUCKS BIG TIME! I know what a helicopter is, I know how costly it is.... but I want to know is HOW TO FLY THE GODDAMN THING...!!!

[hanksranger]

Your not going to learn that over youtube trust me.

[okplayer420]

Is it just me or does this not sound like the guy from the "God is Imaginary" videos?

[prowler220x]

same thing I was thinking!

[H3inHD]

penis.

[kyrieeleison1]

that's how "stuff" works? What a waste of bandwidth.

take 1 star...for wasting my time.

[jlbared]

And this is how not to make a Video of How Something Works...

Uh...How about lift? Or maybe something else that could explain HOW THIS HELICOPTER WORKS...let's see, Oh, the SPRAG CLUTCH? GEAR BOX? LYCOMING ENGINE? HYDRAULIC CONTROLS? I think you should have stuck to the Honda Civic.

[cardinaldriver]

LOL...All they really had to do is explain how the swash plate interacts with the main rotor and how the tail rotor counteracts torque and they would have explained how 99% of all helis work!

[cardinaldriver]

And that's suppose to explain how the aircraft works?

[emilioTOMASbarca]

lol

[adogg619]

This was dumb, I was expecting something much better than this. how about going into some detail about the R44 itself?

[socal1000]

he's adding the spare tank to so 30 plus the 15 is 45 gallons to go 400 miles

gas for the copper is about 4 bucks a gallon now so thats around 180-200 bucks to go from LA to vegas then fly over the hoover dam a little land and still have a little left over, about 230 miles from la to vegas 200 bucks flying beats 40 bucks driving any day plus half the time,and who needs a car in vegas it's perfect,,,,,,,

[kokomangoe]

This guy has got the numbers wrong. He says R44 burns 15 gallons/hour. He then says the helicopter will fly 2 hours on a full tank which means the tank take 30 gallons of gas. So why 30 gallons of gas costing $300?

[borish08]

good

[pyramidhead138]

uh this doesnt tell you how the CONTROLS work

[magicfreak123]

This is assuming you have basic knowledge of how helicopters work.......all BASIC controls in all helicopters (cyclic, anti-torque pedals, and the collective...)

[ShmeareD]

Didn't show shit about how a helicopter works

[Crazyrogue]

but u still need the civic to get to the airport :D

[Cougar545x39]

you can go by foot :)

[rich0319726]

I don't understand what this video has to do with how a R44 helicopter works? It's just a weird comparison between the R44 and a Honda civic.

[colomblanco]

What a great video! I am an expert now on R44s!  Thank you Howstuffworks!

[FARCRY1978]

OK Now I know that a honda civic weights double than the R44... and R44 costs a lot more...

BUT HOW DOES IT WORK????? really poor video of how stuff works

[hadumhadu]

cost comparison and capacity!!

but how it works???

[vitin187]

still dont know how it works!! dumb video!!

[carlosestevam]

Actually this video does not show how it works but how much does it cost. It talks more about dollars than about physics.

[Workerstar1]

well at least it tells you that it works with a BIG wallet, lol.

[Cypher017]

When I was living in Cancun, my father used to go in tours in an R-44 as a tour guide in showing and telling the tourists about Cancun. I had a few chances of going in some of their trips. It was cool.

[pyramidhead138]

what kind of fuel do those take anyway?

[OMGitsT3Hwagz]

Aircraft usually use some kind of Kerosene based thing for fuel.

[jjohnson5946]

Avgas 100LL

Most piston engine aircraft use 100LL(low lead).

Turbine aircraft (jet engines) usually use Jet-A.

Both are usually available at most airports.

[pyramidhead138]

i want one of those

[mikeluvs2fly]

I'm still waiting to find out how stuff works????????

[SosiBibuSuka]

lol... I would never get a piston engine driven helicopter... those things breakdown! Rotor all the way....

[plank0wner]

Should change the name to how much stuff costs.

[Rustymilk]

psh i have like 5 of those

[AtomicWhiteWhale]

I had 2 of them, one I donated to charity so poor children can have something fun to do =). My new one have super sonic speed with my advanced customizations I added to it.

[weipeiwu2000]

Wow, you guys are pretty lucky to get a R44... well, i'll still want a Hughes 500... Their almost the same... but i don't know the price of a Hughes 500..

[bloodgulch1]

They make helicopter expensive because they dont want civilians to start buying helicopters.

[YEE941]

I still got one anyways

[oisiaa]

No, they are expensive because they are very complex machines that have to be engineered up to very high standards of safety. Also they must get a very expensive type rating from the FAA.

[YEE941]

I got one of those

[BlackTedebear]

mee too

[Glaruf]

Yeah, I bought my parents an R44 for their retirement.

[yellowsponge123]

Nice! but... Where would you put it? lol
