4Kᵁᴴᴰ HA-MRC, Kamov Ka-26 - Test flight w/ brand new paintwork

[@MA-iv7ol]

Kamov Ka-26 and Sikorsky S-58, the only helicopters left that still make beautiful music with radial engines.😍

[@АлексейАрхипов-л1ц]

My father was pilot of Ka-26 in agricultural aviation. He gave me a ride several times. Just like in the video. Amazing feelings.

It's amazing that such rather old helicopters are still working and even quite reliable. Of course, without professional specialists, maintaining their performance would be impossible.

[@utubecustomer0099805]

Something very satisfying about watching these old dudes restore and maintain beautiful legacy aircraft. Lots of historic tech from the East that we usually don't get to see. Respect.

[@SkyMaXX5]

This helicopter has a modern evolution - Ka-226. And he's great.

[@robbypolter6689]

It is still in production as the Ka-226, the cabin has been slightly modified and the two radial engines have been replaced by turbines. But otherwise it is immediately recognizable as Ka-26 (226).

Great video! Ka-26 is one of my favorite works of Mark Kupfer (deputy chif designer at Kamov design bureau) alongside Ka-27 wich he finished after Kamov's death. One of the pioneers of parametric alignment concept in helicopters design.

[@michaelodonnell5710]

Around 2:30 it appears that the engine was briefly running backwards, yes? They quickly stopped and corrected it, but I didn't know that was possible!

[@mysock351C]

I noticed that, too. Probably only happens due to the large excess of fuel in the exhaust while they are cranking it. Unlike a 2-stroke Detroit, once it burns the fuel off it stops running backwards.

[@ivanbratanov8699]

Would you please clarify what is this tool at 2:45 which is held near the rotor blades?

[@SeanMirrsen]

It's a stick. No, really. Well it's a stick with some soft material wrapped around it. Every blade in the rotor has a different pigment on its tip. When you gently hold the stick up to the spinning rotor, so that the tips barely brush the soft material, you get a picture of how well the individual blades are balanced, with the three smears of pigment they leave on the stick.

[@ivanbratanov8699]

@@SeanMirrsen thank you for the answer!

[@mikee9065]

@@SeanMirrsen Hello, Sean. Actually what they're doing there is not balancing the blades but checking the tracking of each blade. The rotor blades all must rotate in the same plane to work efficiently together and reduce vibration. At 3:25 the tech is adjusting an aerodynamic trim tab on one blade to move it's tracking into the same plane as the other blades. Those Kamovs have a lot of blades to get into track.

[@alexlo7708]

I suggest Kamov to develop Sikorsky S-97 Raider as a competition choice in arms market. It is easier for them to develop such heli.

[@НиколайНикакоюс-л2ь]

The fact is that to overcome the threshold of 350 km / h for a helicopter is such a useless task that it simply does not make sense. The whole point is that the propeller blades lose their lift when overcoming the speed of sound. By the way, this is also a problem for propeller-driven aircraft, which is why they began to massively switch to jet propulsion.

[@alexlo7708]

@@НиколайНикакоюс-л2ь I think they overcome it by reduce rotational rotor speed when in flying mode. It may be like auto gyro when the heli fly straight.
