How was that a so-called "abnormal" landing? --- other than that odd forward-motion landing like an airplane which I have never seen a helicopter do. Besides, it looks like that helicopter has skis on it to facilitate such a landing.
looks like the flange ring optimizer was not in maximum load mode and the ring oscillator was not reading the groud effect module properly resulting in excessive deceleration of blades 2 and 6 resulting in a rapid decay in altitude.
@SignedSheet Don't worry, @fendertelecaster8225 is talking jibberish. The pedals control the yaw in a helicopter. At high forward speed, their effect isn't as needed as it is in a hover due to aerodynamic effects. That's why you see the pilot come in with forward speed and then flare just before setting down.
Nice Run-On landing i guess like in normal helicopters when he loose the tail rotor LTE he enter in an auto to take out the pitch angle of the main rotor and make the torque to be reduced until sat down
Those 600Ns were a good idea that should have remained just that. On paper they look great. In reality those thrusters demand too much power, and their autorotation performance is horrendous.
just lost a great friend and boss in an heli accident in south dakota. i here one of the blades broke off. is there a recovery for that? just lost and sad thinking bout it.
@ak7wyf A blade separation of the main rotor will generally not be survivable unless it occurs in a low hover and even then things likely will turn out very poorly. Even the loss of a small portion of a rotor blade can destroy a helicopter, fortunately this rarely happens without some outside help, like someone shooting at you or an argument with a fairly solid object. Sorry to hear about your friend.
A lot of people in this comment section don't know wtf they are talking about. Try pulling a decel like that in a power-off autorotation at that approach speed, and see what happens to your rotor RPM. He was clearly under power. How dare someone film something impressive and skillful. Good job to the pilot.
Stuck peddal landings are part of a helicopter pilots training. It lets a pilot practice a landing if for some reason there is a lose of control of the tail rotor or in this helicopter type its thruster.
A peddal can stick at any time. If it happens well hovering it is not to hard to deal with just set the bird back down is will rotate a little to the left in this machine as torque reduces and there is to much left peddal. In cruise if the peddal jams then you have what this pilot did.
@zurepako They were showing how to land with a stuck pedal, not how to correct the spinning when you lose tail rotor efectiveness, thats why the heli is not spinning. Yes hes doing autorotation but hes also controlling yaw with the throtle.
All aircraft work on the same basic physics. Roll, Pitch. and Yaw. so yes rotory wing air craft have rudder pedals. you just have to counter the torque of the input shaft, to keep it straight, all the time. one reason both hands and feet are busy all the time.
Was one of the "rudder" pedals stuck? I know they don't have rudders, it's all in the tail rotor but you get what I'm saying haha I don't know too much about anything but fixed wing aircraft.
@ncn8ochaser no helicopters do not have rudder pedals they have antitorque pedals also known as tailrotor pedals that counteract the torque of the main rotor cheers!!
@ncn8ochaser Err.. the pedals control the pitch of the tail rotor instead. The helicopter in this video is a notar meaning no tail rotor. It's actually cool how that works you should look it up :)
Well while I was standing there with my instructor from the MD factory, taping this landing of the 600, he was showing us what it looked like from the outside of a stuck pedal landing. If you'll notice he's landing under power and then rolls the power off after the run on landing. Not trying to argue, but going by what I was told and how we performed them in the 520N!
@BPA6013 It was a correct stuck pedal landing, a little hot but done correctly. A auto rotation doesn't include the forward momentum nor would he have been able to flair that way had it been a real stuck torque control. I had a stuck pedal in a rotorway and landed successfully.
@obese1konobe The helicopter is clearly under power until the flair so "autorotation" would not really be an appropriate title since it was only performed at the very end.
if this was a right stuck pedal with the right pedal significantly depressed or a simulated tail rotor failure than this technique would be appropriate.
How the hell do you know? Are you an expert at knowing every problem a helicopter has just by looking at it? Give me a break. Someone who can't spell should probably not be giving "expert" opinions on matters. "Envolve"? I'm pretty sure thats spelled with an i. INVOLVE.
HAHAHAA what a jack ass.......yes it is SPELLED, not (spelt) u dumb shit. And arsehole is just gay so dont say that. lol, you suck...and if your a pilot, prove it. That simple.
@BigJay604 Wind coming straight at any aircraft helps. In the case of any tail rotor malfunctions the stronger the wind off the nose the better. It helps in countering the torque a little bit. It certainly would be a lot harder and in some small birds nearly impossible with a strong crosswind.
It's a stuck thruster - nozzle on the tail, or similar to loss of tail rotor effectiveness (LTE) - in this case the throttle is used to control the yaw and torque of the helicopter - in which you would make a run on landing.

A wonderful demonstration of an AUTOROTATION !! NOT a stuck pedal!!
Any pilot who does this as a stuck pedal landing will end up in a smoking hole!!!
Please re title
MD600n autorotation.
Stuck pedal landing technique all envolve long steady approaches with power/ pitch set to suit pedal deflection at time of failure.
All require a run on landing only variable is run on speed. NEVER requiring an auto!!
I think the poster is confused with a tall rotor failure technique!!

I don't know so much about helicopter yet, I'm only an enthusiastic RC pilot dreaming that some day I'll afford to fly a helicopter pilot license :-)
about the wind, at least it looked like the large tail fins were a big help keeping the heli straight..

It's a stuck thruster - nozzle on the tail, or similar to loss of tail rotor effectiveness (LTE) - in this case the throttle is used to control the yaw and torque of the helicopter - in which you would make a run on landing.
