While HTV is busy working on new content, check out some of our old videos from a few years back.
This video is one of the first HTV made and despite shaky camera work, background airport noise and those flipflops*… It has become our most popular video with over 2 million views (as at Dec 2020).
This video walks through the helicopter flight controls of a Robinson R22 Helicopter showing how the controls affect the main and tail rotor and more.
*NOTE – Open toed shoes (flip-flops/sandals) are NOT worn during actual flights! Maybe a little too casual for a recorded ground lesson too…[facepalm]
