Hallo John Eacott,
greetings to down under.
Unfortunately at the moment i can't remember where it is, but i'm shure, i've seen a chart with ride characteristics and vibration levels. Compared with light airplanes and some other helos the BK stand in the upper (better) quarter. To vibration and different rotor systems we've seen some threads in the past. I agree it's difficult discussion. To avoid the next thread i will cancel the
"Rigid rotor system, flights are really smooth and calm".
The EC 145 is equipped with a rigid rotor system but have new rotor blades + the "balls".

What's going on with your fixed line trials?
