Guilty as charged. One of the reasons I pulled my posts was to prove the point you made above about the thread making no sense. However the main reason was to take myself out of the mix so that the other contributors to the thread can see for themselves that there is no consensus regarding both precession of any type and the theory behind retreating blade stall. Each participant said I was wrong and that the reason I was wrong was that they were right yet no two participants agreed with each other. Regarding my being right or wrong, I gave up on that some time ago. True I countered other opinions but not to prove them wrong but to show that there were alternate theories for the same action.
Another reason for removing my posts was to point out the activities of RW-1. His challenges and attacks go back to my original posting about the Robinson not being certifiable. In every one of his posts he attacked my ideas and has never once offered any technical opinions to counter my thoughts and ideas. If I challenge him and ask for his technical input he says I am an old man (which I am) and I am an idiot (which I am not) and therefore, he does not have to reply. His opinions are based some out of loyalty to Robinson helicopters but mainly on the opinions of others who say I am wrong. (See above).
I would also suggest that the participants go to other threads and see the technical opinions offered on these same subjects and that there is no consensus.
