Nice article mate. I enjoyed watching the attached JetRanger video. :) I often wonder if Bell will ever move back into the light turbine market with a new smaller helicopter to take on Robinson. They have to try.
One thing that is often missed when explaining how to fly helicopters is that the collective lever increases the overall thrust produced, including the effect from any cyclic input. The amount of collective power you have pulled adds to the effect of the cyclic stick movement.
that long to take off
