TAIL ROTOR MOUNTING FOR CONING RELIEF

Helicopter tail rotors provide anti-torque forces to maintain stabilized flight and further provide aircraft heading control. Aerodynamic forces generated on the rotor blade cause the tip thereof to move out of line with the pitch change axis of the blade, an effect known as "coning," whic...

Summary:Helicopter tail rotors provide anti-torque forces to maintain stabilized flight and further provide aircraft heading control. Aerodynamic forces generated on the rotor blade cause the tip thereof to move out of line with the pitch change axis of the blade, an effect known as "coning," which produces undesirable forces on the rotor blade, the hub and the tail rotor control system.
