Can a helicopter fly backwards?

Yes, a helicopter can fly backwards, although this is not the normal way a helicopter moves. Helicopters can fly backwards by turning the rotor blades in a certain way, which is known as "flying backwards". However, this is rarely done as it is more difficult to control the helicopter and has higher fuel consumption. Instead, helicopters usually use the tail rotor to move backwards when necessary.
