Welcome to day 24 of the Helicopter 3's. Today I'm going to give you two sets of threes - double bang for your buck. The first one is geared towards any of the training helicopters and the second is going to be more for guys flying Enstroms. The first I want to talk about is a Normal Take Off. There's 3 things you can do to get through a normal take off without changing your power. One method of taking off, this isn't an absolute, but this is what we do here, and I do this this all year round. Whether it's summer time, whether the performance is good or bad, we don't change the power on a take off. We set the hover power that's number 1. Set the hover power for the day and start creeping forward very slowly, so slow that it's painful. Keep that slow speed and keep building it and building it until you get to ETL. Step number 2 is once you get to ETL push through that ETL to keep the aircraft low to the ground, continue your take off and then once you get to around 30 and your going to be above ETL. Number 3, adjust your cyclic to get your climb speed and in most helicopters you can do your entire take off and never change that power and the beauty of that is you get that airspeed for your climb, get the altitude that you want, get over a clear area and then change your power whether you need to add or lower power. The reason that is they tell us is that if your going to have an engine failure, if the engine in on the verge it's probably going to happen during a power change. It's not most likely going to happen when the power is just at one setting. It's not an absolute but it's what they tell us how it usually works. If it's going to quit it's probably going to quit when your changing that power. That's a good prcedure for doing take offs, you know a lot of guys want to pull the max power and stick that nose to the ground and take of like a mad man and that's OK - you can take off like that - we don't do that here, we prefer the slow take off that way if you have an engine failure the nose is straight and you can slide that thing right on the ground nice and level. If you have your nose pointed down and have an engine failure you could posibly nose dive into the ground. The second one i want to throw in - a cool thing a guy in Cleavland taught me years ago is that 30 and 30 make 60. If your having a good performance day in an Enstrom and again this isn't every Enstrom. We've had our problems in the past where we didn't always make the pwoer we needed but right now in our Enstrom if you hold 30lbs of manifold preassure and you do that slow take off, wait until you get going and if you push through ETL and right about 30, start your climb, you can adjust cyclic to make 60. It's a proven fact as far as I'm concerned, I've done it and it's really cool how it works. 30 inches - hold that until you get through ETL until you get 30, then adjust your cyclic accordingly! 30 and 30 will give you 60 0 it's a good method to use. Hopefully you like this - please click the like button and the share button, don't be afraid to leave comments or feedback and we will see you on day 25 - thanks!
