Learn how helicopters use cyclic, collective, throttle and anti-torque pedals to achieve and maintain controlled aerodynamic flight. The cyclic control changes the pitch angle of each rotor blade according to its position in the cycle, creating lift and movement.

Introduction to Helicopter Flight Controls, demonstrated in a Robinson R22 Helicopter, covering collective, cyclic, and anti-torque pedals.NOTE - Open toed s...
Learn how to fly a helicopter with the main controls: the cyclic, the collective, and the pedals. Find out how they work, what they do, and how to use them for basic flying skills.
Flying a helicopter requires the use of three flight controls. The collective, the cyclic and the pedals. In this video I show you the basics of how to fly ...
Learn how to operate the four major controls of a helicopter: collective pitch, throttle, cyclic pitch, and antitorque. Find out how each control affects the flight of the aircraft and how to practice them in a simulator or a helicopter.
Helicopter Controls - This article describes the four primary controls on a traditional helicopter: the collective, longitudinal cyclic, lateral cyclic and pedals. Helicopter Forward Flight - Explains how various values change with airspeed in level, trimmed flight.
Learn how helicopters generate lift and thrust with their rotor blades, and how they control their movements with collective and cyclic controls. Find out how drag, torque, ground effect, and vortex ring state affect helicopter flight.
Learn how to fly a helicopter with this guide to helicopter controls and basic maneuvers. Find out how to adjust the main rotor, tail rotor, collective, cyclic, and yaw controls, and how to master hovering, turns, and autorotation.
Helicopter - Control, Flight, Dynamics: A helicopter has four controls: collective pitch control, throttle control, antitorque control, and cyclic pitch control. The collective pitch control is usually found at the pilot’s left hand; it is a lever that moves up and down to change the pitch angle of the main rotor blades. Raising or lowering the pitch control increases or decreases the pitch ...
