Dynamic rollover — A helicopter is susceptible to a lateral rolling tendency, called dynamic rollover, when lifting off the surface. For dynamic rollover to occur, some factor has to first cause the helicopter to roll or pivot around a skid, or landing gear wheel,… … Wikipedia

If a helicopter lands on a sloped ground, there is a likelihood of its rolling over. In such a situation, a moment is produced by the horizontal component of total rotor thrust about the point of ground contact of the skid. This moment is opposed by weight of the helicopter. If the angle of bank of the helicopter, i.e., slope of the ground, is beyond a certain figure the restoring moment is too small to stop the helicopter from rolling over.
