Shawn cole - Why is it not possible to pull enough Gs for structural damage? I don't understand what keeps the Gs from going high

Graviman - It doesn't seems like a helicopter like an R22 is responsive enough to create a strong side force. Idk it just seems like that. And heli movements are dampened. Anyone heard of damaged bearings from turning

pulling hard is a very extreme case.



So it is ok to pull as hard as you want when flying an R22?
