Back to that helicopter stunt in T2, there's another I'm thinking of from a Jackie Chan movie, maybe Rumble in the Bronx, where a chopper hovers down to ground level in an alley, leans forward and tries to use its propellers to kill Jackie Chan. Was that a real stunt or was it on a crane? I think I remember a wide shot.

It was Tomorrow Never Dies, when Brosnan and Michelle Yeoh are being chased through Beijing. And yeah, 100% fake. A helicopter can't hover with its nose down and rotors at 45 degrees. If it were elevated it would be diving quickly while moving forward. An inch off the ground it would wreck in one nanosecond. Also, helicopter blades will shatter under the stress of their own force if they hit solid objects. They can't be used like a buzzsaw like in that scene.

They also do the helicopter thing in the first Mission Impossible, around 4 min into this clip; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjxUCEWPr-k

A helicopter basically self destructs in an instant if one of its blades touches an object. here's a video of that happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5aMT9MBfZI&t=29s (no one killed in that crash)

Helicopters are bad designs. Where are our cool hovering vehicles and stuff?

I forget the physics equation, but picture how slow an object would move sitting close to the center of 45 rpm record, versus how fast it moves out at the edge. Now scale it up to the record is moving at 500 rpm and the record is 32 feet wide. The tip of a rotor is moving at something insane like 440 mph. Just glancing a solid object at that speed will tear apart anything. And helicopter rotors are designed to bend because of the forces they generate. If they were made of extremely sturdy steel, allowing it to cut through objects, the engine would tear itself apart. So helicopters are quite literally designed to be perfect at flying and to shatter into little bits if they touch something because you can only choose one of these two options: Stabile flight or being a big dumb buzzsaw that can't fly.

That's a lot of words that don't matter because the blade is going at the same RPM as the rotor. The tip doesn't "go faster" it just covers more ground than the center in the same amount of time, it's only technically "faster" but that's not really relevant. I learned this from a Google search, just now. You could just say "a helicopter is a giant fan but the fan blades are flimsy and will fly apart if anything touches them".

LMAO Savaged by Calvin's dad. The loving physics formula for speed is literally distance over time. The tip of the rotor is going farther in the same amount of time. That's literally the definition of faster, dude. lol. The Anime Liker fucked around with this message at 18:42 on May 28, 2017 |

Interesting aerodynamic theories gentlemen, but could an aeroplane take off from a treadmill if it were big enough?

Stiffer bladed helicopters are becoming a thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HncZgouxt9k I don't know how the S-97 compares to longer flappy bladed ones in efficiency, but it definitely can fly.

Rotacixe posted:Stiffer bladed helicopters are becoming a thing. Well yes, you can have sturdIER props, but solid ones that hold together against impact are theoretically impossible unless we discover unobtainium. And 99% of non-military helicopters would never have a use for the enormous cost of those when it's easier and vastly cheaper to just not fly into poo poo. Fun fact: interstates and baseball/soccer fields and public parks are often designed with a restriction on overhead wiring so that military and hospital/ems helicopters can land in the clearing unobstructed at night, and firefighters and some police carry mobile landing zones for this.

Rumble in the Bronx had a couple insane stunts involving that hovercraft. There was also the Jackie Chan movie where some dude just plows through a bus windshield that was completely unplanned.
