Use of OFS in the EC 225
Normally on the EC 225 the Offest is on automatically in small angular increments and is a function of several parameters as sensed by the aircraft. There is also an OFS switch ithe sub panel where the pilot can manually engage the offset Reason why I am starting thread is to find out if the are operators that manually engage this OFS instead of automatically waiting for the aircraft to do it. I have experienced the POOP sound whiLe lifting off to the hover over the runway with a crosswind component from the left.
