There is no spring moment in the flapping of the Robinson rotor. Once the blades are coned and are free to flap there is absolutely no restriction in the flapping outside of any friction on the hinge caused by centrifugal loading.

Pitch coupling which Try_Cyclic is referencing is explained in my post above.
