theres a problem with helicopters, as you forward speed increases, the relative airspeed of the retreating blade decreases, loosing lift on the retreating side, cause the helicopter to bank dramatically! this is the sole reason why you dont see fast helicopters!
sorry i just love helicopters, and one day want my PPL in one!
