The joke is when you first start you don't really look at them.

Also 40 is way more than are there. Especially in a single engine jet ranger.

In airplanes, the specs include the "reserve capacity", so when the fuel gauge plus reserve capacity are exhausted, no, there is no more fuel. (But if you have enough altitude and are a master of dials and the flying and the physics, you may safely choose to ignore them. Would not recommend.)

That’s what I’ve been saying for YEARS.

Who the hell invented helicopters to be so damn complicated.

One rotor on top, another on the tail.
That’s it.🤷‍♂️
WTF are all those other time wasting gadgets for?🤦‍♂️

How can I fly a remote control helicopter with all those damn gadgets?🤦‍♂️
