Heath- Doing quick stops are fun and are a very necessary maneuver to get proficient at. There is a lot going on. You come in, give it backstick with just the right amount of down collective to not balloon up, and not too much to descend. Meanwhile your right pedal is being applied just the correct amount to stop any right yaw from the torque being reduced to the rotor. Both the cyclic, collective and pedal inputs are smoothly changing positions until the helicopter is stopped. Then forward cyclic is applied to level the skids, up collective to maintain consistent skid height, and left pedal to stop left yaw from the torque being reintroduced into the rotor. The more aggresive the quick stop, the more back stick, down collective, and right pedal are required, and the timing exponentially more precise as it hsappens much quicker. For me, when I first started doing quick stops, it was always with wide open space ahead of me. It took some getting used flying through my channel, doing that left turn, and then coming at a dead end wall of trees and my stairshop. The quick stop has to be done as the trees are just right there. Doing that went against my engrained reactions from years of flying airplanes and gyros. You just don't head into a dead end like that. Those quick stops are aggressive, but not as aggressive as I have seen another Helicycle do. In my opinion, my nose looked like it is around a 45 degree angle, and as can be seen, it stops very quickly. Any more aggresive quick stops, decelerating from a much higher speed over a longer period of time, with full fuel and a high DA could see a VRS develop. Stan
