Not quite sure where you are thinking the break would be, either forward of the sheave or aft of it or both?
If it breaks forward of sheave, the engine will still drive the tail rotor, but no torque reaction required since the main rotor is no longer driven. Therefore the a/c will yaw left needing right pedal but the lever will need dumping.
If it breaks aft of the sheave, main rotor is still driven, tail rotor isn't therefore the a/c will yaw right (left pedal needed, except that won't work so lever gets dumped).
Breaks at both places, simple engine failure scenario, sort the pedals out after you have dumped the lever!
Can see a pattern here - most important thing is what is happening to the lever rather than the pedals.
Can someone remind me where the govenor receives its RRPM/ERPM information from?
PS you should never be fat, dumb and happy in an R22!, well not all at the same time!!
