No need to get snarky, Ascend Charlie.

I am not a Jetranger pilot hence the question and it was clear from the context that I was asking about the Jetranger transmission configuration so not sure why you needed to comment "unless you are in a 206". That's the point of my whole question.

When you say "Raising the lever will make the nose go left, through friction" what do you mean by "friction"? Do you mean "main rotor torque"? Or perhaps drag on the MR creating torque? Well yes I know that.

But when you say "right pedal should keep you straight" - why would pedal do anything at all if the tail rotor is not being driven?

212 Man - thanks for that diagram.
