Question

Jiff:

Using your example there will be minimal pitch change at low collective because the pitch horn/pitch link connect point is on or near the teeter axis. If the collective is raised and you teeter the blades there will be some pitch change because the pitch horn/pitch link connection are no longer coincident with each other. This is the same as pitch coupling.
