At least in a jet ranger.

You have a mixing of the controls in the controll column... Meaning that when you lower the collective you have some mixing going on on the forward cyclic control rod. In the case of this helicopter its actually moving the control rods. At least that;s what the factory instructor said to me

In spanish the mixing lever is called "LA BAILARINA"
