Hi Guys
Just a quick enquiry I was wondering if you could help with. I'm in the middle of an engineering project at the moment and in order to assist with this I am referencing the MD902 RFM. One area I'm having difficulty understanding within the flying control chapters is the collective friction system. I understand the friction release switch and what it's functionality is, what I'm not clear about is how do you adjust the friction: the RFM states it can be adjusted between 5 - 25Ibs. However, I cannot find how this is achieved. The aircraft I have flown - 206B, R22, it is either a knurled knob or a collar on the shaft of the collective lever. Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks
Trev
