Eggbeater vs. Helicopter — What's the Difference?

A handheld kitchen utensil with rotating blades for beating, whipping, or mixing.

A helicopter is a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are supplied by horizontally-spinning rotors. This allows the helicopter to take off and land vertically, to hover, and to fly forward, backward and laterally.

A kitchen utensil that uses rotating blades to beat eggs.

A type of aircraft which derives both lift and propulsion from one or more sets of horizontally revolving overhead rotors. It is capable of moving vertically and horizontally, the direction of motion being controlled by the pitch of the rotor blades.

A (wire) whisk.

Transport by helicopter

A swimming stroke involving alternating kicks.

An aircraft that derives its lift from blades that rotate about an approximately vertical central axis.

A helicopter.

To go or transport by helicopter.

(slang) An outboard motor.

(aviation) An aircraft that is borne along by one or more sets of long rotating blades which allow it to hover, move in any direction including reverse, or land; and typically having a smaller set of blades on its tail that stabilize the aircraft.

An aircraft without wings that obtains its lift from the rotation of overhead blades

A powered troweling machine with spinning blades used to spread concrete.

A mixer for beating eggs or whipping cream

(botany) The winged fruit of certain trees, such as ash, elm, and maple.

A dragonfly.

A whirling trick performed with devil sticks.

(transitive) To transport by helicopter.

(intransitive) To travel by helicopter.

To rotate like a helicopter blade.

To overprotect one's children, as a helicopter parent does.

A heavier-than-air aircraft whose lift is provided by the aerodynamic forces on rotating blades rather than on fixed wings. Contrasted with fixed-wing aircraft.

To travel in a helicopter.

To transport in a helicopter.

An aircraft without wings that obtains its lift from the rotation of overhead blades
