Re: R44 Corner

Hi Flingwing,

I am an owner/ operator of a new Raven 2.

What damage is done in a rotor overspeed? What sort of cost is involved in putting it right?

Is the R44 designed to withstand the occasional mismanagement of the controls eg not being quick enough on the collective in the auto or mishandling the throttle?

My machine is not used for training or hire but I do expect to let others fly it occasionaly, hence the question. If the risks of accident/ high rectification costs are too great I'l keep it all to myself!
