Is a helicopter an airplane?
Yes, a helicopter is known as a 'rotary wing aircraft'
What is the science behind a helicopter?
In avionics, a helicopter is known as a Rotary Wing Aircraft. (As distinct from a fixed wing aircraft. ) This indicates the operating principle is based on the ordinary wing profiles used to generate lift.
Difference between helicopter and fixed wing aircraft?
Fixed wing- air is moved past the wings to create lift. Helicopter- the wings (rotor blades) are moved through the air to create lift.
How is it to fly a helicopter?
Much more complicated than a fixed wing aircraft. -Military helicopter pilots in most services MUST qualify as fixed wing pilots before graduating to helicopters.
When was the first metal helicopter invented?
The first metal helicopter, known as the Focke-Wulf Fw 61, was developed in Germany and made its first flight in 1936. This helicopter featured a fully metal construction and was a significant advancement in rotorcraft design. Its successful flights demonstrated the feasibility of heavier-than-air rotary-wing flight, paving the way for future helicopter development.
You want to design a hand glider wing can you say what is the variables you should take into account of?
The length of the wing, the weight of the wing, and the angles of the wing have impact. So do the speed thrown, wind speed, and temperature.
How do you fix an air hogs hawk eye helicopter wing?
You can't.
What inspired the design of a helicopter?
The Dragonfly
Why was the helicopter intoduced?
To get access to places fixed wing aircraft cannot go.
What wing design for a paper airplane will soar the farthest?
What wing design for a paper airplane will soar the farthest
Why Bernoulli's Principle makes an helicopter fly?
A helicopter uses Benoullis principle in the exact same way as an airplane does. A helicopter has a wing just like an airplane's wing. The major difference being that instead of pushing the wing forward through the air, a helicopter swings the wings around above its head.
How do you get lift?
You get lift when the flow of air over the top of a wing or helicopter blade is less than the flow undr the wing, and it pushes it up
