Fixed wing aircraft require runways for takeoff and landing while helicopters lift vertical. They hover in one spot, can move sideways and backward, and fly slowly. This enables access to areas airplanes cannot reach.
A helicopter has a cockpit for a pilot and co pilot. The crew uses two sticks, feet and many instruments. The collective pitch control raises or lowers all rotor blades. The cyclic pitch controls tilt and direction. Rudder pedals adjust where the helicopter points. The left stick is the collective and changes blade pitch to climb or hover. The cyclic sticks steer forward backward or sideways by altering blade pitch in the rotation.
