HELICOPTER PEDALS JAM IN FLIGHT 

This guy could teach your grandmother how to fly, truly an excellent teacher, thx for sharing the knowledge.

Have seen Simon in two videos now, in both he looks like he in on the verge of having a nervous breakdown.

You guys make an awesome team. Stay friends.

As a non pilot, I find all these videos really reassuring for when I rarely fly on EMS helicopters. Whilst we have excellent pilots, for which I have trust in, helicopters always make me feel that they fly by magic! All these videos have given me a much greater understanding of why we do what we do during flights. You have however made me slightly gutted that I don’t have the time or cash to learn to fly one myself!

This guy was a born teacher

Who forgot to clear the floor of rolling items before takeoff? Had that happen on a mission in a UH-1H, when the pilot (Warrent 3) announced a jammed torque pedal on the air and the intercom he went opposite pedal which moved freely then went back to the right pedal and forced it using some muscle and the jammed pedal suddenly freed up after the coke can exploded all over both windshields and both pilots. They were very happy to get out of the bird after we completed the mission. It was the pilots soda that jammed the pedal. He actually volunteered to clean up the inside of the cockpit. After that incident the crew chief and I wouldn't let either of the pilots use anything other than a canteen which we handed them and returned to the canteen bag we used to hold them. Our pilot never again took a soda on a flight. 68-69

Not a helicopter pilot but love the content

almost feel like i'm back at Ft. Rucker in '71...good job.

Awesome videos and amazing instruction! I've been flying for 30 years and you have a talent for teaching and explaining things. Also some pretty good videography skills and editing. Very well done!

Awesome insights Mischa thank you Sir!!!

Excellent video and teaching technique. Enjoy following your lessons.

Having many hrs with a friend in r-22 and 300s, I love this

Excellent instructor! Nice flying.

Excellent explanation and excellent flying skills.

Came here from watching 3 ships roundup livestock in Australia. Just watched my 3rd or 4th lesson and pilot is one cool customer. Both students seem quite cool as well. I knew these small ships were used here in USA but dint know our neighbor to the north allowed them as well. Very cool!

Man. Like that Cabri. Great explanation Misha.

Very interesting... and well done Simon, "Like a Boss" eh? Haha. Great video again Misha, you were born to do this, obviously. A definite thumbs up. .

Love your videos, very informative.

Great video

Thank you for your knowledge.It very useful.

Very interesting, thank you!

wow, im no pilot but im gonna go try this :) your communication skills are excellent!

This is great.. do you have a "beginner" video on the controls and first take off?

Great video.

Great video !!

Nice job.

Big fan! Rio from Kelowna. It would be so interesting if you make a videp on the radio conversation with the tower and the various terminology used while talking.

Isn't the fenestron on the Cabri spinning 10 times faster than the main rotor? As far as I remember, it is the Robinsons where the TR spins 6 times faster. Anyhow, again great footage and a pleasure to watch!!

Hey bro! Thanks for your cares. .

I've never even been inside ANY helicopter. However, after watching several of you videos, I believe I could fly one. I watched your videos several times and I memorized everything you did and said. I think about it during my day. I'll probably never actually fly. But I thank you for making me believe I could.

What did you film this with? It's as if I'm sitting on the glare shield. GREAT video!

Love the Instructor and his very calm and collected way of instruction. But I have to ask have you guys ever had a brake shoe moment?

PLEASE let me know what you're using for cockpit audio! I have the gopro 8 and A20 bose headsets too.... what do you recommend?

OK, I understand...can I have my private helicopter license now?

Ram ram sir g , you have made nice helicopter video, your language and voice is awesome you are a very gentle instructer, you are from which country,I am Dara Singh Jat from India,I want to learn helicopter pilot training,how much expenditure will be?

Helicopter: time to become a fidget spinner

Thats a great demonstration. I bet it can be difficult to get this right especially if you switch between EU and NA helicopters often.

Do they teach you this in all training schools? Just curious

Ok so when he said roll the throttle not turning governor off that means add or cut power??

All you see are tragic moments with these helicopters. How much time is it until some problem happens?

Awesome video again. Exzellent explanations, easy to understand if you are interested. One, maybe stupid, question: why do North American and European helicopters spin the rotor in opposite directions? Was it on purpose or just coincidentally? Keep up posting such great videos! Greetings from Vienna, Austria.

Auto rotations should be practiced constaly....its a must....

you guys are just off the ground.what if you were at 500 meters altitude.would the same technique work?

Why are your pedals depressed but it doesn't show up the same at the PIC station?

Find it's ( the prospective unit)

Hi Mischa, yet another very interesting video! A few questions: how come that pedals get jammed or stuck? And why don't I see any theory or training for jammed cyclic or collective? Don't they get jammed too? Is the mechanism for tail rotor control just too fragile?

wow that was cool I want to fly a helicopter I've always wanted to fly helicopter actually I flew RC helicopters back in the 70s but I want to do the real thing help me help me. I just want to try it for the day just to see what it's like. there isn't any place to learn how to fly a helicopter near where I live but I would definitely take a vacation and try it I have pilot skills I want to do it so bad

What are the reasons for pedal jam?

Right seat guys like “les get this done!!”

If you clog your beer bottle underneath for instance ?

Manual force

Is the guy sitting next to you, a drone ? just wondering.

I swear i heard "Twerk" the first few times lol

jamb the pedals at half to full movement and we'll see how well you do....

Pilot Yellow looks suspiciously similar to a former coworker and sounds very similar too. Family member?

yes cod mott he could teach my Labrador rufus to fly hes darn good instructor.mmm dam good ha haa

please don't say european when you mean clockwise. Here in Germany the system Bölkow was developed, it's counterclockwise, and still today the H135 and H145, developed from the system Bölkow have counterclockwise rotors. There are some great helicopters from France like the Écureuil with the starflex has clockwise rotor and the gimbal cabri is French or think about Westland helicopter like the EH101 Merlin.

This is a clockwise turning rotor system I presume?

What if you’re somewhere where you can’t set it down??? 😳🤔

Never liked R Models. Fills like a bx ??

Would that be any particular kind of jam, like raspberry or maybe rhubarb?

At 0:29, 0:41 & 0:54 - I'm hearing "Twerk," didn't you mean "Torque?"

How the hell did we end up with North American and European helicopters having different blade rotations?! Seems ridiculous to me!

There is no such thing as an "European helicopter" like we all were the same country and manufacturer. Italian Leonardo (former Agusta) and British Westland (now part of Leonardo) turn counter clockwise. Airbus helicopters (former Eurocopter) is a merge between the French and German Industry and only the french ones turn clockwise. Like the Cabri. So: just the French ones turn "the other way" from your point of view.

Did he say twerk?

Please don’t bring any condiments onboard the choppa! No need to risk jamming your flight controls

Eh?

Lol, Europe has to do everything backwards

Stay calm. Really ?? Pedalls. Jamed ?? Ok. Stay calm.

RUSSIAN ROULETTE NOT GETTING IN THESE JUNK BOXES EVER.

Talk a bit slower and some of us will be able to apply what we are hearing to what we are seeing..

I always thought of getting into a life or death situation and my choice would be to steal an Air Plane or die. Now of course the owner would get their craft back, they'd just have to retrieve it un harmed in another location. Me.......I'd run to a Truck Stop and find a ride 3 or 4 states away. But any how, this is were learning to Fly might be a good thing to know. If you have any sense at all, you'd know were at War. The things we've seen go down over the past month with the Freeman High School shooting, The Las Vegas Shooting and the Wild Fires in California you'd know we're at War.

Great video
