No aircraft can totally eliminate drag but the design and materials its made of can reduce the effect. That's why you see a high speed planes with a smooth skin they use flush rivets to smooth out the air flow across the surface.
Drag on a helicopter can be reduced by streamlining the body and rotor blades, ensuring smooth airflow over the surfaces. Another way is to use a more powerful engine to generate more lift with less drag. Additionally, adjusting the pitch of the rotor blades to the most efficient angle helps in reducing drag.
Tatianna was eliminated in episode 9 of season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race. She was eliminated after losing the LSFYL to Jujubee.
A helicopter experiences drag through air resistance as it moves through the atmosphere. The main sources of drag in a helicopter are profile drag from its overall shape and skin friction from the airflow over its surface. Additionally, rotor tip vortices and induced drag generated by the rotor system contribute to overall drag.
Drag cannot be eliminated because drag always acts parallel to the relative wind. We can control by purchasing or using the right airfoil on the aircraft. An airfoil with smooth surface produces more lift than one with a rough surface. A rough surface creates turbulence, which reduced lft and increases drag.
Thrust from the helicopter's rotor blades generates lift, which enables the helicopter to overcome gravity and stay airborne. Drag acts as a resistance opposing the helicopter's forward movement, requiring additional thrust to maintain speed. Gravity affects the helicopter by constantly pulling it downward, necessitating continuous lift to counteract and remain in the air.
Thrust, Drag, Lift, Weight (Gravity).
The helicopter begins to fall because gravity is pulling its weight. As the helicopter accelerates, the air passing past the helicopter creates drag, as the helicopter continues to accelerate the drag Increases until the drag becomes equal to the weight, stopping it from accelerating. Even if the helicopter did not auto rotate it would still reach a terminal speed, however the terminal speed for the non auto rotating helicopter would be a lot higher and the helicopter would take longer to reach this speed.
Click on the guy standing near the helicopter and he will say that you have been invited back for another season. Then click inside the helicopter where it says "start the show."
Only two contestants have been brought back to RuPaul's Drag Race after being eliminated. Carmen Carrera was eliminated in episode 10 of season 3, but was brought back in episode 12. Kenya Michaels was eliminated in episode 5 of season 4, but was brought back in episode 10. Both contestants were eliminated again in the same episode they were brought back in.

The size of a helicopter blade affects the speed of rotation by determining the amount of lift generated and the amount of drag produced. Larger blades tend to generate more lift but also experience more drag, which can impact the speed of rotation. Adjusting the blade size can help optimize the balance between lift and drag to achieve the desired speed of rotation.
The shape of the blade of a paper helicopter can affect its flight by influencing factors such as lift and drag. Blades with a larger surface area or more angled design may generate more lift, while blades with a streamlined shape may reduce drag, resulting in longer flight times. Experimenting with different blade shapes can help optimize the performance of a paper helicopter.
