This video begins with the Airbus H125 performing a takeoff in an open configuration with the doors removed, commonly used for sightseeing and aerial filming. Powered by a Safran Arriel 2D engine, it has a maximum takeoff weight of 2,370 kg (5,225 lbs), a top speed of 155 knots, and a range of around 340 nautical miles. The reduced weight and drag, combined with its strong power-to-weight ratio, allow for a responsive lift-off and stable hover, even in this open-door setup.
