OK so my understanding is in this situation you bring it back in trim and the cyclic should become effectie again. I imagine that at this point youd already be dead in the R-22.

Ok so were getting somewhere, but I still dont understand why the cyclic becomes ineffective here?

Also is the pitchdown a result of the lift of the rotor system suddenly evaporating, or is it from some wierd connection with the out of trim flight? Does the pitchdown occur when there is no cyclic or pedal adjustment or can it happen if aft cyclic is applied but no trim correction?

Im sorry to be asking so many questions but I am at college and I stupidly left my basic aerodynamics books at home.
