Autorotation?
Good evening Rotorheads,
If you are taught to fly rotory in the R22, it is drummed into your head ( or it should be) that if the Gerbil stops running you have about 1.5 seconds to re-act by pushing the collective down, the other important feature is a flare, to load the disc to ensure that RRPM dont fall down beyond the critcal, whilst undertaking this short but life saving task, roughly how much height would be lost, or is this an impossible answer to give, and at what height would stick down and flare be to late for any auto whatsoever,(apart from EOL from the hover), and last, is the speed of 1.5 sec's common in all helio types.
My Regards
