Then he followed the installation procedure, including the mast nut torque application. The mast nut torque application is a critical procedure, which ensures that the rotor assembly remains attached to the main rotor mast. He asked a mechanic to come and verify the mast nut torque.

By adding power, thrust can be increased to keep the airspeed from decelerating too rapidly and the wings from suddenly losing lift, but throttle must be closed immediately after touchdown. Depending on the severity of ballooning, the use of throttle may be helpful in cushioning the landing.

Helicopter Controls Helicopter pilots utilize three main controls: the cyclic, collective, and anti-torque pedals. Anti-torque pedals manage the tail rotor’s thrust, countering the main rotor’s torque to maintain directional control and stability. Why is helicopter flight control more challenging?

The pilot controls the throttle to create thrust. These are called left turning tendencies and include P-factor, spiraling slipstream, torque, and gyroscopic precession. TAXIING The rudder is vitally important before you even leave the ground. As the propeller spins, it creates a slipstream that strikes the rudder.

Stalling with a high-power setting takes more effort since there is thrust and a high-energy slipstream from the propeller, which prevents boundary layer separation. Watch out for torque effect (especially if you are in high-powered aircraft) since the increase in power can cause the nose to yaw to the left.

The rotational force thats needed to move an object about an axis is called torque. The simplest formula for torque is: Torque = F x L L is the distance between the object and the axis of rotation, also called the moment arm. They can use the engines to produce differential thrust to steer the aircraft.
