In this episode, we picture a helicopter’s spinning rotor as a moving wing that makes lift; notice how blade pitchchanges lift; and hear how pilots use the collective (up/down), the cyclic (lean the “flying circle” to drift forward/sideways), and the pedals with the tail rotor to keep the nose steady.
