TIP: setting static tail rotor compensation
If the building instructions supplied with your helicopter do not
state recommended values for tail rotor compensation, a good
starting point for the mixer is as follows:
Swivel both tail rotor blades so that they face vertically up-
wards, as described for the basic tail rotor setting (see 8.6.2).
Move the collective pitch stick to max. collective pitch (climb).
Set up the tail rotor compensation mixer TROT CP so that the
distance between the two blade tips is to around 30 mm.
The optimum setting can only be established by practical flight
testing (see 8.6.7).
8.6.4. Auto-rotation
The term auto-rotation refers to a non-powered landing by a helicopter, i.e. it is a
method of landing the model safely if the motor should cut in the air. The collective
pitch of the main rotor is set to a negative value, and the airflow through the rotor
keeps it spinning while the model descends rapidly. Sufficient energy is maintained
in the rotor for a safe flare just above the ground followed by a gentle landing -
provided that the pilot judges the approach correctly. This flight manoeuvre is diffi-
cult to get right, but very important, and the COCKPIT
MM
makes it as simple as possi-
ble to practise it. The transmitter can be fitted with an auto-rotation switch which
can be employed for practising auto-rotation landings as well as for genuine
„autos“ if the motor actually cuts in flight. Install a 2-position switch in the left-hand
outboard well, and connect it to socket S3. You can then use it to switch directly
from normal flight to auto-rotation.
What does the auto-rotation switch do?
The switch disables the collective pitch / throttle mixer, which is automatically acti-
vated when you select the Helicopter model type. For auto-rotation practice the
auto-rotation throttle setting (AROT GAS) can be set to any value in the range 0 to
75%.
This is how you set auto-rotation throttle:
