I would appreciate it if you share this by clicking here: on. Upside... . Sorry about the Ad, I'm saving for the kid's college education and this is my plan to pay for it. There's more to Chopper Physics than you think. I will be releasing the videos at the end of the video over the next few weeks.

Instead of saving for my kids' college, I make videos using the money I would have saved.
The thought is it will help educate the world as a whole, and one day generate enough revenue to pay for their education. Until then if you appreciate what you've learned in this video and the effort that went in to it, please share the video. If you REALLY liked it, feel free to pitch a few dollars towards their college fund by clicking here:

I don't know of one single course that can cover "aerospace physics". I spent 10 years studying it and still feel like I've only scratched the surface. My advice would be to take the course, but recognize you won't know everything when you're done. I learn something every day. My other advice would be to tell your friends to subscribe here for my own personal gain.

(using meat servos to type on keyboard) Yes. Meat Servos.

Thank you very much Random Guy! I was wondering why such a strange number came in!

Heck yeah. It's hard to wrap your head around but once you get it it makes a lot of sense.

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

Blackhawk pilots have a common prank they play on new guys. On long hauls, if a newbie has to pee, they'll land on the ground and let him exit the aircraft and walk halfway back, face the tail, and begin to pee. Once he starts, the trick is to feather the collective to slightly negative, reversing airflow and making his pee stream rise up over the urinator's head.

Came over from Grant's channel 40 minutes ago and I've already watched several of the most fascinating and interesting, not to mention brilliantly presented, videos I've yet to find on RU-vid. Thank you : )

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

Welcome to the channel. Learn along with me.

I just took my kids down to Destin Florida one week ago ! The beach is amazing ......every one was outside jogging or riding bikes and walking down the Beach . I have never been to a more beautiful place . :)

Do what you love man.

@starwarsfreak1111 12 лет назад

Destin, you have now received the biggest thumgs up ever recorded in human history. I admire you for standing by your principles it's something I thought was gone from society! GOOD JOB!!!

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

I hope you guys become the most intelligent group of chopper students EVER.

@lolcat23 12 лет назад

Absolutely awesome idea fixing the go-pro to look at the swash plate. Makes understanding it in depth and intuitively so much more easier. Love your videos :)

@Otterwearinggloves 12 лет назад

Wonderful video. The best relaxing educational thing I have ever seen.

@GoGreenMan 9 лет назад

The last video in this Playlist was crazy! I don't think I've ever REwatched a clip so many times. Crazy you can even see the pilot almost come out of the cockpit, even his mic and muffs were dangling. Thank God he survived. Thanks for more awesome videos Destin!

12 лет назад

As a RC helicopter flyer, I have to say this is probably the most innovative and interesting video of RC helicopters yet!

@rodrigofgatto 12 лет назад

everytime i watch some video of this guy, the songs combined to the images make me think about how our world is wonderful!

@Spicoli1Bilek 11 лет назад

It is either the cobra or the apache chopper that was designed to do things like this. They had to fit special fuel tanks and pressurized oil tanks. There was a lot of work in making one do that kind of stuff without stalling or shutting down.

@smartereveryday 11 лет назад

I encourage RU-vid comments like these.

@MrEDMeaner 11 лет назад

Glad I went back and watched part two again - was able to properly comprehend the natures of (and differences between) collective and cyclic pitch and thereby understood and enjoyed this episode much more clearly!

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

The blade rate is not exactly constant. It's close, but not exactly. During the "why you don't need a parachute" video you'll see there's a special case where it's very different.

@kpankh07 12 лет назад

maaan, this is by the far the greatest episode i have ever seen. keep it up.

@DustyRobertson 12 лет назад

its amazing how you capture and share with the world the extraordinary things inside ordinary activities that happen in our daily lives

@DobermansRock 12 лет назад

I work on Blackhawks and have over 1,500 flight hours. I love your helicopter videos. Keep it up.

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

Thanks bro. It's all for a good cause. Any revenue generated goes into an account for the kid's college fund.

@BrashAdventures 12 лет назад

That view from the boom with the GoPro showing the swashplate was awesome and totally made it "click" in my way of thinking on the way helicopters input collective and cyclic control. LOL @ "meat servo"

@equinator4u 12 лет назад

Another thing to bear in mind with the full scale doing 3D maneuvers, is most full size helicopters have whats called a flex coupling. It allows the helicopter to remain mostly level when applying forward cyclic as in forward flight. There are those that do not have this, but if memory serves, most do.

Flying rc helis takes a lot of practice. I've been flying them for 15+ years and they are a ton of fun.

@Hfajardo97 12 лет назад

Helicopter engineering is a work of beauty.

@SVSky 12 лет назад

Pretty cool to see the movement that the flybarless system is adding.

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

They use negative collective to keep themselves pressed firmly to the ground.

@MrRichi388 12 лет назад

I think these helicopter physics videos would be easier to follow if they were in a playlist with an order, I'm not sure which order they are. Great videos though entertaining and educational

@bobbob123ful 7 лет назад

When Destin mentions rolling shutter at 1:43, then finishes making a video about it 5 years later. It's cool to see that the germ of an idea was already planted here in 2012.

@thecuriousengineer 12 лет назад

@Ripstop_pilot 11 лет назад

brilliant! just brilliant! im a helicopter engineer and know most if not all of the info your sharing. but what a awesome way to get it across! this should be in schools!

@0711jps 11 лет назад

So impressive! I am a Mech Engineer working in the Aerospace Engineering world of gas turbines since 1996. I am completely amazed by your videos and find myself feeling like it is my first day in Thermo or Kinematics. I have crashed and burned my 14" RC heli and have decided to stick to my Syma 3.5 ch mini indoor heli. We need to have your RC pilot enlist and be our future drone fighter pilot. He could single handedly win any war with a UAV.

@project5inc871 12 лет назад

The swashplate movements during the tic-tocs were insane!

@AaronBakerPilot 12 лет назад

Ha ha. Meat servo... Not to mention the rotor head! The reason these rc helicopters can fly upside down is due to their rigid rotor system. Negative G's in a semi rigid or fully articulated head = lawn dart. Good stuff, bro. Learning things is more fun with toys. Thanks for putting the work into it.

@TEHGROUND 12 лет назад

Good work, very easy to understand to people who didn't know this already.

@rahulsuresh2298 6 лет назад

I had no idea how blade movement was controlled. I got Goosebumps when I saw the swashplate and its mechanism in slow motion. Such an ingenious way to control the blades. Do a series on ingenious mechanisms used in such machines.

@saminm1 12 лет назад

Best series on YT

@himynameiswolf1 12 лет назад

I Love learning about the physics and how certian manuvers are possible! This is so much for a fifth grader but, I find it very interesting. I like how you compare it a little to a gyroscope, I study this stuff to one day become someone who makes this stuff possible and design the mechanics that make this possible. This is my FAVORITE class, physics and engineering.

@Rammonte 12 лет назад

Destin I am watching the DEEP DIVE right now!! I gotta say, You are the man! and Helicopters are awesome!! I rode in my first one just last weekend, Incredible!

@rudycepedagomez 9 лет назад

I just found this channel and it is amazing. And I agree with you, continuum mechanics is one of the hardest topics I ever studied. Brrrr. In Spanish it is called "mecánica del medio continuo", but some people say "mecánica del miedo continuo".

Because flying upside down is cooler, that's why.

@Twinfire 6 лет назад

I know it's kinda passe to post on old videos but hey, this is the internet and today this video is new to me. I came here from watching an RC helicopter stunt video and thought "I wonder if SmarterEveryDay has slow motion video of RC helicopters?" Did a quick search and the rest is quite old history. Thank you Destin for broadening many peoples horizons including my own.

@orionxte 12 лет назад

I can say this is helping me pilot my own heli with this input.

@klam77 7 лет назад

you guys are TOP NOTCH! Tremendous explanation. really a primer on the swash plate!

@scottdotjazzman 11 лет назад

Just a note about "anti-torque pitch control": Technically, pitch is rotation around the port-starboard axis, so it'd should be referred to as "anti-torque yaw control."

@smartereveryday 12 лет назад

Me to! I do this to raise money for my kid's college fund. Then they could go to Oxford or MIT!

I'm literally ROFL right now. At 4:08 you used the term "meat servo." As a fan of RC and automobile racing this is hilarious. No idea why. Great series BTW. I can't stop watching.

Destin. New subscriber here and loving the channel. I'm a fixed wing flight instructor and would love to see some more aviation videos. Maybe talk about P-factor, stalls, spins, airfoils, cg and fulcrums, altitude densities and the effects it has on naturally aspirated engines, and her engines! Jet engines are fascinating and would make for a great video.

@SomeDudeOnline 10 лет назад

Wow, I did not know helicopters were capable of this wizardy before this series. However, I also never really understood how choppers worked. This series is helping to clear that up a bit but I think they went into explaining the flippies a little too quick. It would have been nice to see the camera on the chopper of a normal flight (no flippies) to see how the swashplate and anti-torque play a role in normal basic turns and such before jumping into flips and diagonal flights and all that. Not a big deal but it would have made understanding easier.

@60knightsix 10 лет назад

"Wow, I did not know helicopters were capable of this wizardy before this series." Answer - they're not. Please see my input above. What you are seeing is hobbyist-level model that have been modified to do tricks.

Not only was your channel the only one I missed, but it's the only one I still enjoy. Why? Because I ACTUALLY LEARN SOMETHING!! :D Please keep up the good work! It's like I'm being "Homeschooled" by watching. lol (at home, watching YT, learning things. Who would've thunk it.) Many thanks!
