@pf126p I'm not sure you could get GR with the starflex. It's not quite fully articulating. miniscule lead-lag damping is provided by the spherical laminated rubber "thrust bearings" which don't stay out of phase when slammed like a hydraulic damper does.

An autorotation allows a pilot to control the helicopter upon engine failure while not overspeeding the rotor system and keeping a speed of around 60 mph. At the bottom when the ground approaches the pilot exchanges airspeed for energy to slow that bird down and touch down softly.

Bravo....well done!

every helicopter pilot does.

google it, it a lot easier to explain, but basiclayy is the way to to put the heli in the ground nice a safe without engine power

smoooooooth lol

I like to roll into a harder AOB and G-load the head to roll out on final with as much altitude as possible when doing a 180 auto. This was a nice auto. It looks like they had a large lane since they were practicing at an airport.

Niiiice......I had one of the "Craven Morehead" leather nametapes made up several years ago. It's amazing how many people look right at it in the DFAC and miss it totally.

Now how likely is ground resonance during a full-touchdown? That whole phenomenon kinda turns me off to an articulated system... :\
pf126p 3 years ago
I'm not sure what the statistics are. I have only done about 30 "full-touchdown" or run-on autos, but I have never experienced ground resonance. I believe that part of the landing gear has to hit the ground and then become airborne again. When we practice autos to the ground we rarely bounce.

Nice screen name, BTW. You know Phil McCracken? ;)

Yeah, he's Harold Ballz' brother in law, right?
