A Kenny Keller YouTube video demonstrating a straight-in autorotation in an R-44 helicopter. The speaker gives real-time callouts (airspeed, RPM, rate of descent), describes control inputs and flare technique, and closes by promoting a free video and the "Private Pilot 101 Helicopter Training Blueprint" (privateblueprint.com) as additional resources.
I got 1350. I got 65. I want a little more airspeed. I'm right close to zero, my rate of descent, so I. I don't have the bunch to fix or I'd go around. So since I don't have a bunch to fix, I'm gonna go ahead and go with it because I feel good. I don't feel like I'm rushed. Zero rate ascent. Got my 70. Perfect. I climbed just a hair, but I don't care. Climb just a hair, but I don't care. Exactly. Now we're gonna go in 1, 2, 3, enter. And now I'm doing nothing, just sitting here. I pull a hair collective just a tiny little bit. And this is what an auto should be like. This is what it's exactly how it ought to be. Passing 100. Everything to green. Start a gentle flare. Make it a bigger flare. Make it bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger. Close to going right over my spot. I like it. I liked it too. And we have more free resources like this free video.
