Cheers guys, just what I was after

Is it wrong to assume that when the nose pitches up, as a result of RBS, you actually gain height?

FL I'm just trying to get my head around the physics of your spinning bits. When you say you reduce pitch to prevent, or recover, from RBS, I take it that this is the pitch of the blade and has the effect of reducing the AoA of the stalled blade. I understand that bit as that's what we do on fixed wings.

The thing that's confusing me - When we stall it, usually, happens to both wings simultaneously. Assuming you had entered a fully developed stall, as I picture it, when you carry out your stall recovery why does it not aggravate the symptoms of the stall and increase the roll rate or AoB?
