Today I am going to be talking about
how helicopters work. Helicopters work because there is
less air pressure on top of the wing, this causes suction and makes the wing
move up. A helicopter's rotor blades are wings and create lift. An airplane
must fly fast to move enough air over its wings to provide lift. A helicopter
moves air over its rotor by spinning its blades. A helicopter steers by tilting
the swash plate which changes the pitch of the blades to provide forward,
backward and side to side lift. Here is a video that you can watch to tell you
how it works. Helicopters are amazing vehicles. They can land in spots where
other modes of transport can go. They are agile and can be used for fighting
they are a great invention.
