2. Helicopter blades, also known as rotor blades or rotor blades, are the
key components of a helicopter's rotor system. These blades play a
crucial role in generating lift and thrust to keep the helicopter
airborne and maneuver it as desired. Here are some key points about
helicopter blades:
Types of Blades:
◦ Helicopters typically have two main types of rotor blades: main
rotor blades and tail rotor blades.
◦ Main rotor blades are responsible for lifting the helicopter and
providing control over its movement. They are attached to the main
rotor head.
◦ Tail rotor blades are found at the rear of the helicopter and are
responsible for controlling its yaw (rotation about the vertical axis).
Some helicopters use a fenestron or NOTAR system instead of a
traditional tail rotor.

3. Design and Construction:
Helicopter blades are typically made of lightweight yet strong materials such as
aluminum, composite materials, or titanium. Some military helicopters use advanced
materials like carbon fiber.
Blades are designed with a specific airfoil shape to generate lift. The airfoil's shape,
twist, and angle of attack can be adjusted to control the helicopter's flight
characteristics.
Blades are often designed with a slight twist along their length to compensate for
variations in airspeed and angle of attack as they rotate.
Rotor Head:
The rotor blades are attached to the rotor head, which can be of various designs,
including fully articulated, semi-rigid, and rigid types.
The rotor head allows the blades to flap (move up and down), lead-lag (move forward
and backward), and feather (adjust the pitch angle) as they rotate. These movements
are necessary for control and stability.
Lift and Thrust:
As the rotor blades rotate, they generate lift due to the pressure difference between
the upper and lower surfaces of the blades. This lift counteracts the force of gravity and
keeps the helicopter in the air.
By tilting the main rotor blades collectively, the pilot can control the overall lift, while
varying the pitch of the individual blades can control the helicopter's attitude and
direction.

4. Tail Rotor:
Tail rotor blades, or the alternative systems mentioned earlier, provide thrust to
counteract the torque generated by the main rotor. This prevents the helicopter from
spinning uncontrollably in the opposite direction of the main rotor's rotation.
Maintenance and Inspection:
Helicopter blades require regular maintenance and inspection to ensure their structural
integrity and performance. This includes checks for damage, wear, and proper balance.
Many modern helicopters have built-in systems to monitor blade health, and they can
alert operators to potential issues.
Rotor Diameter:
The size of a helicopter's rotor blades and their rotational speed play a critical role in
determining the helicopter's lifting capacity and performance. Larger blades can generate
more lift but require more power to rotate.
In summary, helicopter blades are vital components that enable a helicopter to achieve
controlled flight. They must be designed, manufactured, and maintained with precision to
ensure the safety and efficiency of helicopter operations.
