No. Ok, maybe you might chip a compressor blade in the turbine intake if you got one or two in, but the mention of rotor downwash is correct. Lots of wind from the blades when they are sitting at half throttle on the ground, but in a hover at full rpm? Not a chance of them getting there at all.
On the other hand, you can increase the fps of your BBs by shooting them FROM the helicopter if shooting downwards. Rotorwash and gravity help this. Of course, if you aim for one guy you might hit another elsewhere on the field. Lmao, bored afternoon at work. Sorry or the silliness, I'll just shut up and go watch the video now.
Edit: SHit! That's a new Bell 406 Jet Ranger!?!?!? Those ain't cheap! Or big. Downwash isn't so bad from them.
