Crab, you said,
In forward flight there is a difference in V squared between the advancing and retreating side so the increase/decrease in pitch has a bigger effect on the advancing side
Not being argumentative, just need to clear this in my head.
Would it also be correct to say that increaseing collective also increases the teetering angle for a given airspeed?
This changes the tip plane path, and so, the RTV, hence the need to pole forward with increased collective to maintain attitude.
Or do i still not get it?
