Why is piloting a helicopter considered more challenging, despite not requiring much space to take off and land and being able to stabilize in the air and stand still?
In: Engineering
The one thing I’m told by helicopter pilots is that you need a very light touch on the controls. An airplane is more forgiving, but you’re going to have a bad time if you ham hand the controls on a helicopter. Think of this the next time you see a movie where the helicopter pilot is slamming the stick in all directions.
