    А как же тримирование вертолета? А где модель вихревого кольца?

    Hello, I still cannot control the spin during the takeoff when the helicopter is close to MTOW. The antitorque is not enough to stop the spin.

      The tail rotor loss you're experiencing during takeoff is a realistic outcome when attempting to lift off at or near maximum gross weight, especially under less-than-ideal environmental conditions. When operating at these performance margins, it's critical to factor in pressure altitude, ambient temperature, and wind conditions—all of which directly impact tail rotor effectiveness and overall power margins. At high gross weights, particularly in hot-and-high environments or with unfavorable wind alignment, hover performance may no longer be achievable. In these cases, a running takeoff is the appropriate procedure, as it reduces the power required by transitioning translational lift and minimizing the yawing moment that the tail rotor must counter. Additionally, increasing the beep RPM provides greater tail rotor authority by increasing rotor thrust across the board. It’s also important to remember that while these techniques are generally effective at sea level, their effectiveness diminishes with altitude due to reduced air density. For operations at higher elevations, reducing the takeoff weight is often the only way to maintain safe margins.
