HOW TO START A HELICOPTER | MD520 NOTAR

Turbine starts must be carried out slowly and carefully, but are much more exciting than starting a piston helicopter! Take a close up look at the engine start procedure for our MD520N, along with some helpful tips and explanations.

    Hey Paul, if you get an introductory flight lesson, you might be handed the controls. I certainly was when I had one back in 1991. While the pilot held a hover a few feet above the ground, he allowed me to use the rudder pedals and then once we were at altitude he allowed me to take the collective and cyclic, with instruction of course.

    How is the maintenance of NOTAR effectiveness/cost compared to conventional tail rotor?

  • @TransferAir

    @TransferAir

    3 жыл бұрын

    I am not an expert but because of a very good Documentary on Discovery-Channel a few months ago about this topic: Test-pilots and 🚁-Engineers, etc., ... they compared the NOTAR-Technology to some other Helicopters and this invention was definitely the one with the best conditions and less than 1h of maintenance per flight. 👍🏼‼️ PS: it was the MD EXPLORER / 900 N. So I think that it’s probably not more with the 520N or 600N.

  • @MartinVarley

    @MartinVarley

    3 жыл бұрын

    Hi, from a maintenance perspective, the main difference is that whilst you have no tail rotor/driveshaft/gearbox to think about, it is replaced with the variable pitch 'fan' under what we call the 'dog cage' It is has TT straps which have a 5 year life so less to go wrong and less to maintain (and we love the safety aspect), but the TT straps are not cheap so my guess is that it is probably the same cost wise overall but the NOTAR looks cooler! The effectiveness of the NOTAR anti torque is fantatsic once you figure it out, the key is that 60% of the yaw is countered by coanda effect and not the thrust from the fan at the tail, in fact 'pedals neutral' has the duct almost closed and the work is happening with the vertical stabilizers and the YSAS which does a great job. I trained in a cabri with a fenestron so there are some similarities in that you need to be a bit ahead of the game with the pedal inputs but now that I have 100 hours on type I find myself preferring it to the 500E, likely just habit and it a lot quieter!

    From an instrumentation perspective, looks as if it's biased towards the left seat for single pilot operations. Is that typical for this aircraft? I'm used to seeing most helicopters single pilot from the right seat.

    That is correct. Hughes, now MD Helicopters are one of few helicopters where PIC flies from the left seat. Most other helicopters including Airbus, Bell, Sikorsky are flown from the right seat by the PIC although, if dual control equipped, they can be flown from either seats.
