Hi,

the angle the helicopter is stuked exceeds the slope limts given by the manufacture.
Further, youīre not sure, weather you can clear the stuck gear without problems and might have a pivot point for dynamic rollover.

Dragging out isnīt a good idea, cause the undercarriage isnīt designed to be draged through dirt.
I would dig down and use a hydraulik jack to level the helicopter, put a plank underneath the landing gear, remove the jack and fly the bird away....

Greetings Flying Bull
