Helicopter video request
This might sound as bit silly, but here goes! I'm just an enthusiast and feel this would be the best place to ask this.
Those familiar with the Australian ABC television show Foreign Correspondant might have noted the very short rotating shot of a Blackhawk from the point of view of a video camera attached to a main rotor blade, in the opening credits of the show. The shot goes part-way around the machine as the blade rotates. I am guessing without the engine running!
I've looked through YouTube and can't find anything similar to this, apart from the famous old blade retreating stall video.
I was wondering if anyone has tried this on other types of choppers and are able to share the video, or can give it a go and share the results with us? And of course, I wonder if it could damage the rotor blade. Obviously the use of a small, light camera would be best.
Thanks!
Tickle.
