There is a bug in the U-60 helicopter in aerofly fs 2023, where, of you do extreme maneuvers, the rotors will clip inside the body.

These rotor blades also do other interesting things…
-
This is how these rotor blades actually move when the helicopter is flying forward. The one moving forward rises and falls behind, the one moving backwards sinks and rushes forward. In reality, however, this back-and-forth movement and flapping up and down is limited by bumpers and dampened by shock absorbers. Maybe this is not well simulated.

Your recent co-axial Kamov crop duster picture looked very extreme but it was real life! Can they have one lower ‘plane’ rotor tilting up on the same side as the other (opposite rotation) rotor tilting down?
-
Yes, that's the case. That is why the designers had to determine the distance between the two rotor planes in such a way that it was not too much, but that the blades did not collide. This danger is greater at low rotor speed (idling on the ground). Therefore, the left pedal must be engaged below 60% rotor speed. In this case, the lower rotor is at a low pitch angle, the upper one at a high pitch angle. Then the distance between the two rotor planes is the largest.

The autorotation maneuver is somewhat complicated in the UH60 Black hawk since the rotor blades lose energy even if the nose is turned down. But it is possible with practice. Instead the R22 and EC 135 is easy. I love helicopters. What do you think?

Meanwhile the main post was the rotors clipping in the body😅
Yes, and I also wrote that the up and down movement of the rotor blades is (also) probably exaggerated in the simulator, this may be the reason. Sorry if I made it too complicated.

Autorotations are not implemented correctly...

Autorotations are not implemented correctly...
What's wrong with them?
-
By the way, if you are skilled enough you can also shred the airframe with the EC135.

Las autorrotaciones no están implementadas correctamente...
I understand. But if I like to do the maneuver, although complicated in the UH60 but it is possible.
-

Energy management is not correctly modelled...
You cannot get any speed by losing altitude when engine fails...
If you want to know what I mean follow these for ec135:
1. Takeoff like a real helicopter does(Takeoff backwards keeping an eye on helipad... Takeoff decision point for ec135 is 120ft AGL).
2. Fail both engines at 120ft.
3. TRY to land in helipad which is in front of you.

Yes, autorotations with forward speed can be achieved and it is also not realistic.

Is there any description of this take off procedure?

I'm not very good at English, but I think this refers to the stoppage of only one engine, not two. Land below 120 ft, continue the flight above it in one engine mode.
I think this because every helicopter has a height/velocity diagram, on which the areas where a safe landing is not guaranteed are marked. I couldn't find the EC135 anywhere on the internet, maybe because it has two engines. That's why I'm uploading a diagram with a single engine, the EC135 can be almost similar without an engine. This shows the approximate altitude from which you can land safely without an engine starting from a horizontal speed of 0 kt.

Do you need to release a clutch to autorotate the 135 or the Black Hawk? I do on the R-22 on PC (via joystick buttons). The 'expert mode' PC R-22 is .... interesting.
-
On the 135 I usually push these emergency stop buttons to autorotate without the engines. Otherwise, it is enough to just put down the collective. The Robinson is really quite agile.
