During The Storm: Flying in Impossible Weather

All rotorcraft, including helicopters, have inherent flight limitations due to the blended application of their rotors for lift, thrust, and stability. These limitations are also present in winged aircraft during VTOL phases of flight. Operating UAS safely in high winds and severe, life-threatening weather conditions remains a critical challenge. Unfortunately, these conditions are often when they are needed most. Learn how.
