If they had just let someone who worked on the 47s watch the video, they can avoid these mistakes: 1. Fwd rotor counter-clockwise, Aft clockwise. 2. Crew chief seats are rear facing. 3. They are no 4 control rods below the swashplate, just a swivel and a pivot actuator. 4. Chinook can't lift a tank... Nevertheless, still nice to see video on the Chinook.
Where did you see a tank weighing 10 tons, for reference, a 120mm tank gun alone weighs 6 tons! BMP Bradley weight - 23 tons. Weight BTR 80A - 14 tons

It's nice to see some appreciation for us cargo boys from a Chinook crew chief. One additional thing, While the aft rotors are higher than the fwd rotorhead its not the reason the blades don't hit each other. Both rotors are mechanically linked by the driveshaft so when you rotate one rotor the other one turns at an identical rate in the opposite direction. The rotorheads themselves are phased so each blade always remains the exact same distance from each other. Like the way an old hand crank egg beaters whisks pass through each other but never touch

I mean you tried. I'll give you that. Some things are close enough. But you should have done better research. You got the counter torque right, but the Fwd head rotates counter clockwise, just like EVERY US designed helicopter. Its a minimum crew of 3 up to 6 mission depending. Never knew my Flight Engineer and Crew chief were sitting in the heater and avionics closet facing forward. The engine compression/combustion was close enough, as well as the description of the drive shafts. As stated from someone else, the rotor blades are intermeshed, and phased. The rotor heads are of a RC model. Not even close. Plus there are only two dual boost actuators (not four) per rotor head. At least you referenced Differential Collective Pitch (DCP) correctly. And did a decent job describing how the two rotor systems work with control inputs. And the glaringly obvious was the Tank as external cargo. Unbelievable.

I’ve had the fortune to spend many hours flying in the back of this beast. Static line jumps, HALO jumps, helocasting, small boat inserting/extracting and fast-roping. The one thing that scared the crap out of me was in-flight refueling at night: I recall one mission watching it happen under night vision while I was sitting on the floor near the forward starboard gun window- it seemed like the blades were almost touching the C-130 that was giving us gas. It was, for me, terrifying. What an amazing machine and it always brought us home. Props to the crew dogs and the pilots! 🇺🇸

@@Patriot-bn9omYes sir. I remember a famous photograph of a CH-47 extracting soldiers and civilians and detainees from the roof of a remote villiage in Afghanistan. It was the PA Air Guard pilots. Whenever I went down to Fort Indiantown Gap for training I would watch them hovering in the middle of a field 4 feet above the ground. They did that most of the-mid day to practice stabilization in shifting winds and warm air thermals. It paid off in Afghanistan and Iraq where I got to ride them in action. Those pilots would fly into the rotor wash of the leading Chinook, be blinded by dust, fly in and land sideways all off instruments and night vision. Damned good at their jobs.

CEs and get stick time in most other helicopters, but not in Chinooks as you have two pilots up front. Oh, my dad commanded the 228th ASHB, 1st Cav Div, in Vietnam in 1967.

Nice video, and very good explanation and drawings of the complicated transmission of this beast. Two mistakes: - tanks are too heavy to be lifted by a Chinook but this has been mentioned elsewhere in the comments; - there are two seats in the cockpit, for the pilots only. Loadmaster, crewchief, flightengineers and gunners and whoever are all located in the cabin.

Great video, thanks for that. But you missed out to tell about gyroscopic possession. To move the helicopter sideways, the swashplates will tilt to front and back, depending on the rotor. The torque change will take effect 90 degrees later in the rotordisk.

This is a frequent statement made about gyroscopic precession in helicopter rotors, but it is not correct. The principle of gyroscopic precession is much misunderstood. The theory is that for a perfect gyroscope in which the mass is concentrated at the periphery, when a deflecting force is applied, the resulting deflection will be 90 degrees offset, in the direction of rotation. Such a system is only theoretical. All helicopter rotors have a large mass of the rotor head at the centre, and then the mass of the blades distributed along the length of the blade. Therefor the centre of mass, which affects the gyroscopic action is closer to the centre. As a result, although gyroscopic precession definitely occurs in helicopter rotors, it is definitely not 90 degrees. If you get the opportunity to examine any helicopter main rotor system and its flight controls attached to the swashplate, look at the control input at the front. It will be offset by about 12 degrees ahead of the centreline in the direction of rotation of the rotor. This is the control that will tilt the rotor forwards to get the forward thrust for flight. The exact amount of offset will vary from one aircraft to another, depending on the design of the rotor. Most helicopters have only three input controls to the swashplate, two for roll control and one at the front for pitch control, with a device known as the fixed scissor at the rear.
got to jump out of one of these with my own rig, pretty cool aircraft.

I rode one from Ft. Sill to Ft. Riley and back. What an experience. One troop spent most of the trip with a barf bag over his mouth. Coming back, one of the crew members threw oranges out the back end down onto houses.
Great video. Were well done. Next video: CH53K The CH-47D’s cabin measures 30 x 8.3 x 6.5 feet (9.14 x 2.53 x 1.98m). It’s big enough to lift two HMMWVs or a HMMWV plus a 105-mm howitzer and gun crew, yet its fuselage is only 12 inches (30.5 cm) longer than the Army’s UH-60 Black Hawk utility helicopter.
Apart from being informative, I very much liked and enjoyed the toy-like CGI rendering.

In 1970 I soloed in 9 hours, which was about average. That wasn't in a Chinook. It was a tiny trainer called a TH-55. A few people couldn't master that and had to drop out. The second part of training was in the UH-1 Huey. After flight school I was selected for a transition course to fly the Chinook. That was two weeks long. Altogether I flew just over 200 hours in training. I flew the Chinook 900 hours in Vietnam. I would say it took about 200 hours of both flying and watching as a co-pilot before I was promoted to Aircraft Commander in the CH-47. The Chinook was a wonderful aircraft.

Good video, with small inaccuracy in fact, that in almost all animations both rotors are rotating in same rotational direction.
A late addition to the amazing lineup for this year's Canadian International Air Show was the CH-147 Chinook helicopter. By the time the Chinook was added, the air shows lineup was already published and released. This helicoper does heavy lifting mainly of motor vehicles and also manpower. It's the fastest and most powerful helicopter. When not used in military combat, the Chinook is used by the armed forces in transporting aid and equipment to disaster areas, such as firefighting to areas affected by forest fires and other wildfires. This year has been the busiest wildfire season, and firefighters and the armed forces were their ready, and the Chinook delivered some of the firefighting equipment to the sites.
The thought has occurred to me that Jules Verne envisioned a similar craft to this in his book, Robur the Conqueror. For starters, it’s the same size and it also uses rotors to fly.
it's what a superb flying monster to make my jaw drop, I'm really respect the scientists and techincians whose contributed to this high end engineering. russia TU-95 Bomber has a similar system as well which each four propeller equipped front and rear for reversely torque in order to ramp up the speed and reduce the air resistance
