Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / January 2005Is the blade on RC heli dangerous?
Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, it may become dangerous. > Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, > it may become dangerous. You should be on bloody Mastermind! The danger is obvious. That's why I insisted on buying a ductfan plane instead of cheaper blades. :P > > Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, > > it may become dangerous. > > You should be on bloody Mastermind! Let's say 1500 RPM, will give a tip speed of about 200 - 300 MPH, all being driven by an engine producing between 1 and 3 BHP...... Nah not dangerous just LETHAL in the wrong hands!!!

Not at all. A sword shaped item weighing some 8 ounces turning at 1800rpm being driven by close to 3.5 horse power couldn't POSSIBLY be considered dangerous, now could it?

Well he's just bought a Hummingbird for learning in the living room, and is now looking at helis on eBay. I keep telling him not to bother with old things that he can't get parts for, and keep trying to tell him that you can buy stuff new for nearly what a lot of people ask on eBay, but I have a feeling it's not sinking in. I mentioned you being a bit of an old timer and he said he went to a flying area in Little Lever years ago and Dave somebody (Revolution models geezer) was there... Does that ring any bells to you? Anyway, I think I might have found a new member for your two-man flying club, when he gets himself a heli. What do you think? Will you be accepting new recruits? ;-) >>>>> Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, >>>>> it may become dangerous.

He's an uncle for f.cks sake, and uncles NEVER listen to nephews. Let him make his own mistakes, then move in on the bits. You'd be able to flog 'em off on eBAy :) > I mentioned you being a bit of an old timer and he said he went to a > flying area in Little Lever years ago and Dave somebody (Revolution models > geezer) was there... Does that ring any bells to you? Lots of folk have been here and a few when Whitto's been here. What's is name? That tends to give me a better clue than "Dave was there" :-)) > Anyway, I think I might have found a new member for your two-man flying > club, when he gets himself a heli. What do you think?

Probably not dangerous! > Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, > it may become dangerous. > Just wondering something that flies 10000 rounds a minute, > it may become dangerous. Depends on what you define as dangerous! Example: Main rotor blade spinning @ 1500 Revolutions per minute. All of a sudden for an unknown reason. Main rotor chops your head off or possibly another body part! -- In this case -- YES A Helicopter's Rotor Blade could become very dangerous!
