Narrative:The Robinson R66 helicopter 9M-RML was on a demonstration flight at Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, Subang (WMSA).
During the sloping ground exercise at the grass area, after completed the landing with left skid upslope, the helicopter attempted take-off procedure from the sloping ground. Upon lift-off, the helicopter drifted to the right and the PIC (Pilot in command) performed immediate corrective action which caused the helicopter to bank to the left. As the helicopter banked to the left excessively, the main rotor blades struck on the upslope and caused the fuselage to spin uncontrollably clockwise direction and impacted to the ground at approximately 90 degrees from its original heading.
Both of the occupants escaped the helicopter safely with the PIC suffered minor injury and the helicopter sustained substantial damage.
CAUSE
The cause of the accident is due to a ‘loss of lateral control’ during liftoff leading to dynamic roll over.
