Hello,

the Cabri has been equipped with an RRM (Régulateur de Régime Moteur, engine speed regulator) since the beginning.
It's a digital regulator with many inputs and among others, an output that controls throttle.
It works perfectly, even in desynchronized mode (i.e. autos with low RPM) and it takes hand softly, quickly and firmly when you pull the collective to regain power if you don't want to complete your autorotation.

I don't think that what is traditionnaly called "governor" on other helos can do that.

On early pictures in this thread, one can see a blue light : it's the "gov off".

C.S.

I always understood there was no governer fitted to the G2, yet I note on the top row of warning lights;

GOV. OFF

Has a governer now been developed?
