Sorry for the slight change in thread!
I was wondering what determines the length of moment arm for the tail rotor, If the tail rotor was further away surely you would need less thrust to counteract the main rotor coupled with less TR drift, I am aware a heli would look pretty silly with an extra long boom but you guys seem to know what you are talking about.
Hope it has not been covered before
