Limited OEI Hover Capability

SansAnhedral, I believe that it would be more accurate to say that both rotors continue to turn after an engine failure because of the cross shafting. I do not believe that the V-22 is capable of hovering OGE on one engine except at much reduced weights. Even the V-22's OEI IGE hover capability would be very limited.
