  1. A Bell 212 (the civilian version of the "Huey") has a rotor diameter of 48 feet. The Robinson R22, a small two-person helicopter, has a rotor diameter of 25 feet. So somewhere in there is your number.


  2. Probably at least twice the radius of the rotor or the total distance from the front of the main rotor to the tip of the tail rotor. You should ask the FAA if you're in the US, or whatever government agency regulates aviation in your country.

  3. square

    1.5 x helicopter length

    300 ft clearance approach x 200 ft wide narrowing to helipad width
