How to React to Helicopter Ground Resonance and Avoid Disaster
How quickly does a helicopter pilot need to react to ground resonance before it is too late to prevent the aircraft from self-destruction?
This is a compilation of videos regarding the escaping of the hazardous condition known to rotorcraft aviation as ground resonance. The video of the pilot properly reacting to the phenomena is my own from when I was a student pilot. Since then I have become a flight instructor and now fly up to heavy class helicopters commercially.

Wheels Up with a Surprise Visitor

High winds, low ceilings, and other weather in the area didn't make for much VFR traffic including keeping myself on the ground for most of the day, but that didn't keep the fighters away. There was first an unexpected visit from the VFA 204 "RIVER Rattlers" F/A-18 Legacy Hornets followed by an even bigger, faster surprise a few hours later when a US Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron "Blue Ang...

    The HU 30 (Hughes 300) helicopter is a twitchy little machine that needs to be actively controlled at all times!!! My first flights with this type of machine were thankfully with an instructor. I later moved on to the much more forgiving Enstrom F28 to complete my piston engine training before moving on to the much more powerful turbine machines.

    • @Stellicopter
      @Stellicopter Месяц назад

      I find it to be much more forgiving than most high performance and advanced rotorcraft. I thought it was a great beginner trainer. By the time I was instructing, everything was done in R44s which were capable of much higher performance. They were a bit much for new students.

    this just confirms my theory that fixed wing planes want to fly, whereas helis just want to fly apart.

      A bit of an ignorant comment. Ground Resonance can occur in any helicopter with a fully articulated rotor system, including the $17 million AW-139 I currently fly. I simply used all H269 based models here as a level comparison.

    Great video!! Beautiful area of the world definitely!! Quick question - in VFR can you fly just above the broken clouds like that? (i.e. "152" vs. "clear of clouds"). What a great day for flying though! Great footage!

    • @Stellicopter
      @Stellicopter 2 года назад

      Clear of clouds for class G, and 1-5-2 for class E. Sometimes it's just better to get up there above them. Those were reported as "scattered" so technically not a ceiling, but surely on the brink of "broken". Best advice is always keep a mental track of what's behind you if you need to turn back.

  • @jamespeters7415
    @jamespeters7415 3 года назад

    Waiting for the rpm to spike is just torture to watch, 30 seconds and cut the mix. Chopping the fuel at 70% engine rpm is just so wrong. Throttle should be fully closed and engine at idle before shutting down. Then people wonder why they get hardship with their ships 🙄

    • @Stellicopter
      @Stellicopter 3 года назад

      Waiting for RPMs to rise is the indication that the clutch is fully disengaged and the rotor system has unloaded the engine. We also have a policy of holding throttle past idle in full detent any time while the engine is unloaded from the rotor system. This includes startup (especially warm starts), clutch disengage, and initiating manual autorotations. We are a certified Robinson dealer, service center, and flight school. This information was re-advised by our friends at Robinson at the suggestion by one of our own senior instructors who personally knew Frank Robinson.

    • @MyKillerson
      @MyKillerson 3 года назад

      He did everything perfect in this video. He was "squirlly" because he had to get the skids off the ground that instant, not half a second more, otherwise we would be watching a video of a helicopter litterally shake itself to pieces.

    Where do you see ground resonance here? If he had gotten into ground resonance you would have seen helicopter parts flying all over the airfield.

    • @MyKillerson
      @MyKillerson 3 года назад

      Ground resonance starts with increasingly violent shaking and ends, if no corrective action is taken, with a destroyed helicopter. It can be saved, of the pilot(s) know what they're doing. Edit: around 0:51, watch the tail, how it starts shaking, followed shortly by the rest of the fuselage. Ground resonance occurs when the rotor blades get "bunched up" on one side, causing oscillation.
