CLICK HERE – helicopterground.kajabi.com Lift, Centrifugal Force, Weight Hello everybody, Kenny with Fort Wayne Helicopters, and today I want to talk about the 3 elements of Rotor Blade Coning. Which are Weight, Centrifugal Force and Lift. I think about the helicopter when it’s just sitting in the stationary position as it is now. The blade is drooping down like it is now due to the weight. As the blades start to spin and we get up to operating range but before we pull the collective, the blade moves directly out due to centrifugal force. Then, as we apply collective and apply the lift the blade comes up due to the weight of the aircraft being suspended by the rotor system. Memorize those 3 because the examiners going to ask, Weight, Centrifugal Force and Lift. So thanks for stopping by day number 11and we’ll see you tomorrow!
