TC.....You really must be looking in a mirror or something!

Cyclic controls attitude only.

The Collective (Power) determines speed.....think not....leave it on the floor and see how fast you go.....as no matter how fast you can get the helicopter up to...it will ultimately reset to ZERO.

(This explanation is just as accurate as HC's and TC's as a few minor variables are left out in all of them.)
