80% stall demonstration


Surely there is more rigidity with power on than power off so I can't see what is wrong with Gordy's excercise as he describes it. It's not one I do, except perhaps approaching the loss of authority when a hovering auto is done, but that's power off.

Can't say the T/R in the 22/44 demonstrates a loss of authority during a hovering auto, perhaps we could do them in a crosswind from the right to help the effect?

One thing I point out in all hover autos is the RRPM that the M/R blades actually stall and then allow the aircraft to fall.

Cheers tet
