A helicopter doesn't rely on the forward thrust of the chassis, it relies on the forward thrust of the helicopter blades in rotation. Those blades are wings.

- DangitBobby 5y agoThe way the thrust is generated is mostly irrelevant to this observation. The observation is about the mechanics of lift, which is some function of thrust combined with the wings, rotors, balloons, etc. You'd observe the same bizarre mechanics if the thrust were generated by releasing highly compressed air from a tank.
