    Thanks. Where IS the power control ?

  • @lastwordindicator
    @lastwordindicator Před 17 dny

    So it would seem that to do an unpowered descent (to auto rotate) I think it's called you would use the (collective?) push downward, and as you near the ground you would pull upward to slow the aircraft's descent to gently land?

    Does helicopter will auto level itself if you release the stick? And does the stick has a spring to pull the stick to the center and you have to push the cyclic against the spring force? I only have flown a RC or FPV drones and never been inside a real helicopters so I cannot relate to it.
