Dave:"This force, which is caused by tilting the hub, is because this tilting has pitched one blade down and pitched the other blade up. The blades now fly to position, hence 'aerodynamic precession'"

I thought these were suposed to be spokes without a rim. - thats what I was describing - and the inclined flapping hing would push the blade(spoke) up.

It would still be at it's highest point after 180 deg of being pushed up - No?

good night
