Hi Matt, not sure how i came across your RUclips, but happy i did, awesome life you living. Great admiration for the R22, we did a lot of Game capture with these around South Africa, magic machine. Happy days from Durban South Africa .
I'm in that area a few times a year, my folks live in High Ridge and I relocated an aircraft from KSUS-KRHV a few years back. Great area! I'm very jealous of your flight instructor's set up!
Imagine you invite your friend over and he's like "Be there in 5 minutes" and then pulls up in the helicopter Also wanted to ask, do you have to get a permit for every place you land or you can land anywhere?
@@NinjaKiwiOfficial but aren't there some regulations too? I would like to know how big my property must be to legally land there? how far off does it needs to be from public roads etc?
@@Tom-zs6bb Tell me you've never flown a helicopter without telling me. LOL Go take a demo flight at your local helicopter training center. You'll answer your own question.
@@RealRickCox I just took a look at my instructor and commercial pilot certificates and sure enough, it still includes the rating ROTORCRAFT-HELICOPTER. I'll see your LOL and raise you a ROFL! So, again, why would a Robinson or any other helicopter be 'squirrely' in ground effect?
@@Tom-zs6bb Okay. Well let's just start with the rotor design. A 2 blade rotor system is the least stable of all the designs. While it's possible to have a mast bump on any helicopter, more Robinson's have crashed because of this rotor design than any other make/model. When you combine the least stable rotor with very light weight and add ground effect... it's squirrely compared to how it feels landing a MD500E. :)
@@RealRickCox "While it's possible to have a mast bump on any helicopter" Untrue, and irrelevant. Mast bumping is only a phenomena particular to two-bladed, teetering rotor systems. Fully articulated rotor systems, such as those in the Hughes 369 series suffer the different, and less-traumatic droop-stop pounding. The way to induce either problem is to unload the main rotor. Do that in ground effect and maybe the subsequent collision with the ground won't wreck your helicopter. Ground Effect, in both airplanes and helicopters, is a beneficial phenomena and does not make an aircraft more difficult to control. In my experience, only pilots and non-pilot RUclips commenters are "squirrely."
Just subbed! Love your content, even though I am all about fish keeping and don’t know jack about flying! Great video. Can’t wait to see your next endeavor!
Just started following, how is it that you can randomly land in a open field like that at the coffee shop unless the field was owned by the coffee shop and they allowed you to land on their private property....very cool!
Back in the 80’s we used a Hughes 500 C, D and E over the years as our “only mode of transportation.” Later we went to an L3 (Bell with the C-30). In the 80s you could basically land anywhere in Phoenix with SKY12. It was the only jet helicopter in Maricopa county for search and rescue, medical evac, and TV news- so we always were with it 7 days a week. I wrapped out with 14,700 hours of JAFO, camera and rescue. -Circle K’s, stores, movie theaters, pick-nicks. Always had the Hughes 500. Crazy times. Jerry Foster, my partner, received the Harmon flight trophy from President Reagan at the White House. It now sits in the Smithsonian. It was 🚁 99% fun - 1% sheer terror. Stay safe 🇺🇸
I love your videos man! I have my PPL in rotary-wing I got my training in Oahu at Mauna Loa helicopters, I haven't flown for a year because I don't have that kind of money at the moment and almost done paying my debt for my PPL. But I literally wish I was in your shoes I strive to make content like yours and to have my own robby one day!! Keep up the great videos man!!
Love from Germany! while the world is on their climate change trip this guy goes to grab coffee in a R22 much respect and love to the US from Germany! enjoy your hours in the air
Hey Matt - Do you by chance have a polarizing filter on the GoPro lens? In this video in particular, I'm seeing a bit of glare on the windscreen. Would this help cut some of that out?
i usually take USAF buddies 1993 Lockheed Martin TR3B Astra for for my morning dispensary run.. still has the original neon green and hot pink gravity emitters.
Thank You young man for giving your time and flying machine to make a policeman retirement day great. Appreciate your presentation, and flying explanations of your machine.
Nice video ! Good to see how you are making a flight, also all the detailed information how to make a flight, all the requests, conversations e.g. And the free rides... very nice to watch. Thank you ! By the way, I don't have telegram but if you send a mail adress in your message I'm happy to answer.
I have a question for Matt the helicopter pilot on this video? I want to know is it easier to fly a helicopter then a Airplane? Let me know Thanks and I really like your helicopter videos and soon I will be going to college course and taking Introduction to Drones as maybe a side hustle to make some extra cash to supplement my crossing guard job!
I have a question as someone who plans to be a student heli pilot in a few months: when you were landing at the coffee shop you got into a high hover. Isn’t that within the “deadman’s curve” where if u lost ur engine just then u would have no way of landing safely? Like when u came in u had airspeed so u could still auto rotate down but how does it work when u don’t have a lot of airspeed or altitude?? Just curious.
Hey! Hope I’m able to answer your question. This is indeed within the height velocity diagrams shaded area, the “dead man’s curve”. If you lose your engine within the shaded area, the manufacturer just states that landing safely is reduced significantly. It is still possible to autorotate at 100’ with 0 airspeed. Helicopters don’t need airspeed, airplanes do. Flying helicopters is all about risk management/balance. Good luck with your flight training and stay safe! Happy flying 🚁
I was wondering and I know you mentioned you have another channel that shows more fly time but I don't know what it's called. I don't know if you have a video about the preventative maion a helicopter. I know someone told me that after so many hours you have to replace the blades. I know a little about small planes but my understanding is helicopters are more crucial on maintenance/preventative maintenance and such.
I have to admit, this is very 'cool' to be able to just drop in for coffee via heli! In the UK (even if I had money for such), it wouldnt be possible to do this at all!! Well, private property sure I guess!
Are you allowed to land like that? Just randomly land somewhere to get coffee. I thought you could only land at an airport, or heliport. Unless its private property.
It's fantastic to see you getting the traction here that you deserve! Well done

Google Maps: It will take you 2 hours 23 minutes to get here
Matt: That's cute.

@@911shanas his keyboard, I confirm yes.
I saw a blue and gold Robinson helicotper today, it made me think of this channel lol. It was flying really low just over the treeline.
Maybe it was him
@@wolfgangruca7130naw it was me I was going to my girls mansion
If you live in Missouri then it was him if not then I doubt it

Was looking forward to seeing inside the hangar but mad respect for prioritizing your buddy's privacy over content. Love the channel!
Love your content Matt! I truly hope you get more subscribers like you deserve! I wish I was a pilot.
@edkraus1586 It’s never too late!
Still blows my mind seeing you land a chopper 5 mins from my house!!! Gonna be looking out more often see if i can see youre chopper again one day!
It’s fun to watch your vlogs. Imagine how free you are getting from place to place.
Subject to insurance and FAA restrictions of course
What a wonderful view from the hanger. You're inspiring me to get a helicopter.
You are so humble bro. Keep that vibe going 💪🙌
You are such a nice person! Great pilot as well. Love the vids.
Love how this dude has a bird as his daily commuter 🚁
Imagine you invite your friend over and he's like "Be there in 5 minutes" and then pulls up in the helicopter
Also wanted to ask, do you have to get a permit for every place you land or you can land anywhere?
He usually lands on private property with permission of the owner
I think you do if you want to land on private property. You need the permission from the owner...
A wise man once said no cop no stop
Nice views where is that at. What state
@@NinjaKiwiOfficial but aren't there some regulations too? I would like to know how big my property must be to legally land there? how far off does it needs to be from public roads etc?
imagine landing at the house of your fly instructor, such a proud father moment lol
Thats awesome. I definitely want to get my flying license one day and get the same chopper
Let’s get him to 100,000 subscribers. Good video. Thanks for sharing.
Ahh, the ultimate transport. Thanks for sharing 👍
The Robinson in ground effect is sooooo squirrely. Nine job of bringing that one down so smoothly.

Great video. You are so kind and fun to watch fly.
How fun can it get?? Good job!🙋🏼♀️

I love your videos! You must be a funny guy!
Man what you do is so cool and I live in SOutheast TX and this would be great way to get around...
Awesome videos, haven't watched a helicopter journey since Michael Miller published his career from zero to EMS. Will be fun watching yours.
i dont know but in the future i would like to suggest to you to make a video about where to begin to flying a helicopter... etc
Really cool, must be quite a rush and addicting to fly it.

It's great watching you. I can tell your a great guy. I'm 75 and it so enjoyable to see the out doors in a different light. Thanks..........
Is it mandatory to carry out an external check every time you land? and redo the entire checklist? Or is this only done once a day or every few hours?
What a great thing just flying to my friends house love it .❤
Matt, your video's are sooo cool...how about some backstory on how you obtained your training and a helicopter....!
That has to be just so much fun! I've always wanted to own and fly e helicopter.
I loved this type of vibe! Great video man!
this was really fun. i am not a heli person - i was in one once and i found it somewhat nerve racking - but this is great.
gotta read back that altimeter setting my guy. great vid!
Love from Germany! while the world is on their climate change trip this guy goes to grab coffee in a R22 much respect and love to the US from Germany! enjoy your hours in the air
Hi Matt , really awesome flying, following all the way from kenya.
Hello fellow Kenyan
Ahhh, an R22
Your days are numbered
do you park always in one airport, or where you want to land, you park there?
Just found your channel. Great videos!
I like how the door sare well closed :-)
What’s the best way to find the land owners info for landing permission?
Great Video Bud ❤❤Just Pop in for a Chat Love it 👍👍❤️❤️
You need a sign on that field by the coffee shop that says "Helicopter Parking Only".
How did you store the coffee?
Hey Matt - Do you by chance have a polarizing filter on the GoPro lens? In this video in particular, I'm seeing a bit of glare on the windscreen. Would this help cut some of that out?
Do you do your own Maintenace on your chopper?
Can you do some night flying vids?
How much hands-free time do you have while flying to do things such as adjust nav and radios?
So cute!
i usually take USAF buddies 1993 Lockheed Martin TR3B Astra for for my morning dispensary run.. still has the original neon green and hot pink gravity emitters.
OG move there chopping around the neighborhood in your helicopter ... classic
Matt never disappoints
Cool video!
Thank You young man for giving your time and flying machine to make a policeman retirement day great. Appreciate your presentation, and flying explanations of your machine.
Cool video
I used to grab bagels and donuts on Saturday mornings, then fly the helo to my place for coffee and breakfast with my wife :) 🚁
Curious what app your using on your tablet fot the additional flight information?
Soon 100K subscribers Matty!
love ur vids
making me want to buy a helicopter, man..... would love to just fly into a random coffee joint, lol....
Bro which flight computer are u using, talking about the navigation tablet
What company did you get the helicopter from?
I've only watched and liked d a couple of your videos, but
Subscribed within 18 seconds!
Which shoes do you think are best for flying a rotary wing aircraft?
Landing a helicopter just to get a coffee is an absolute obscenity.
Hey brother how much is a helicopter like the one ur flying
Hey! how do you record the audio so well? Is there something i need to buy for my headset? i use the same setup as you :) thanks
Hello, what a beautiful place what is it called?
Hey, was your helicopter from Silver State Helicopters?
You should land in the field next to burger king on hywy K and get some food!
Where is that coffee place do you know?
you made it big!

Do you have a private or experimental license for that helo?
It looks like there are no left seat rudder pedals at 3:18, but they are there when you land at the hangar?
here me out, take to a trip to Florida and do a colab with Cleetus Mcfarland, dude LOVES flying!
Bro what is price of chopper i want to buy it
'Hey bud, yeah my chopper is parked out the back'
i just found this channel and i love it. this is so fuckin cool
You are amazing 😘

What's that app you use on the Ipad
What school would be the best to go to to get a license to fly? Recommendations
Do we have Ac and heater also in it
