Winnie,

God knows what the 'advance angle' is. Could you be thinking of 'advance ratio' (tip speed ratio)?

Lu,

It's only the delta-3 rotor, that you're concerned about, isn't it?

A bit of trivia;

A couple of years ago, John Uptigrove, the builder of the Mosquito , rotated the bottom (only) of the pitch links on his helicopter approximately 10 to 15-degrees. As I recall, he said that it made no discernible difference to flight.
