Hydraulic help?
Anyone out there with similar experience or technical knowledge who can explain to me why I feel a "sticky patch" (no connotations intended)during left cyclic movement on a Mi-8 MTV helo? The cylic moves freely for approx 2-3 cm then there is a resistance for 1 cm then it moves freely again for the rest of its travel.I can relate it to a "ripple" effect on a dam rather than "mirror image" water. ???? Get my drift? This anomaly occurs with and without auto-pilot and on both primary and secondary hydraulic systems.Thanks.
