  Chapter 11: Helicopter Emergencies and Hazards › Autorotation › RPM Control

  RPM Control Rotor rpm in low inertia rotor systems has been studied in simulator flight evaluations which indicate that the simultaneous application of aft cyclic, down collective, and alignment with the relative wind (trim) at a wide range of airspeeds ... basic discussion of the aerodynamics and control inputs for single rotor systems is in order here. Helicopter pilots must understand the use of the collective for rotor rpm control during power off autorotations in a turn. Upward movement…

  high, tail-low attitude below 10 feet. Just prior to achieving level attitude, with the nose still slightly up, coordinate upward collective pitch control with an increase in the throttle to join the needles at operating rpm. The throttle ... proportion to the increase in collective pitch, a loss of rotor rpm results. Use sufficient collective pitch to stop the descent, but keep in mind that the collective pitch application must be gradual to allow for engine response. Coordinate proper…

  nose-low. This situation requires the use of excessive power to initiate a climb. 2. Using excessive power combined with a level attitude, which causes a vertical climb, unless needed for obstructions and landing considerations. 3. Application of the collective ... that is too abrupt when departing the surface, causing rpm and heading control errors. Crosswind Considerations During Takeoffs If the takeoff is made during crosswind conditions, the helicopter is flown in a slip during the early stages of the maneuver…
