LTE is horsefeathers. An invention to cover a lack of tail rotor power from the design stage.
Now that did not take long.....clearly and accurately stated!

Sometimes pprune fishing can take a while...sometimes not so long!

As is being said.....be very careful when saying "LTE" as it might be caused by something other than the other and thus it is not "LTE" per se.

Brother Lappos was very clear in his discussion of the issue.


Here is an archived exchange including Brother Lappos.


Please note he does include "all" single rotor helicopters.

On a less serious note....
