Helicopter rotor joints Illustration of the shift in the location of the center of mass of a helicopter rotor caused by the individual blades' rotation in their respective vertical joints. Articulated rotor systems with drag hinges allow each blade to advance or lag in its rotation to compensate for the stress on the blade caused by the ...
In the Helicopter Quartet in particular this is manifested spatially, as the physical separation of the players from the audience and among themselves, circling in the sky in four different helicopters, is overcome through the use of audio-visual equipment, so that "only when transmitted via television screens and loudspeakers in the concert ...

At high weights this sometimes allows the rotorcraft to lift off while stationary in ground effect but does not allow it to transition to flight out of ground effect. Helicopter pilots are provided with performance charts which show the limitations for hovering their helicopter in ground effect (IGE) and out of ground effect (OGE).
