I know helicopters autorotate but how do you do that if another ‘rotor’ - using that term as I don’t know the correct 1 & I’m referring to helicopter stuff-is powered?
It’s brand new , so I assume that like the F35 , lots of stuff is automated but can anyone answer the above please?
Ta!
The AW609 can autorotate. Here's an article describing how it was done.
