20
Q

In the R22 what helps balance control loads in the rotor

A

Trim springs

21
Q

The engine throttle is also correlated to collective inputs through a ____________ ____________

A

mechanical linkage

22
Q

In flight leaning is _____ ____________

A

not recommended

23
Q

What does the clutch actuator do?

A

It raises the upper sheave when the pilot engages the clutch switch

24
Q

What makes the clutch actuator stop?

A

It senses compressive load and switches off when the belts are properly tensioned

25
Q

Blades should start turning how quickly after clutch engagement?

A

Within 5 seconds

26
Q

Describe the fuel system and its components

A

It is gravity flow, and has a main tank and an auxiliary tank, shutoff valve, strainer.

27
Q

8042B Does not have what in the fuel tanks

A

Bladders, 5 minute, 1 gallon, when the low fuel light comes on

28
Q

Fuel samples should be taken from what three places?

A

Gascolator, main tank, aux tank

29
Q

Low fuel light is actuated by a __________ ________ _______ located on the bottom of the main tank.

A

separate electric sender

30
Q

The fuel shutoff valve controls flow from _______ tanks to the engine

A

both

31
Q

Describe the flow of fuel through the fuel system.

A

Aux tank => Main tank => mixture control => carburetor => gascolator => primer => fuel nozzles

32
Q

Describe the electrical system on the R22

A

14-volt, DC system which includes an alternator and a sealer lead-acid battery.

33
Q

The battery switch controls what?

A

It controls a relay which disconnects the battery from the electrical system.

34
Q

A wire protected by a fuse near the battery does what?

A

It by passes the battery relay allowing both tachometers and the clock to continue to receive battery power with the battery switch off.

35
Q

Except in emergencies don’t operate the ____________ with the battery switched off

A

alternator

36
Q

What does the ALT light indicate? What do you do if it comes on?

A

Indicates low voltage and possible alternator failure.

Turn off nonessential electrical equipment
Switch alternator off then back on to try and reset
If alternator light stays on, turn alternator off and land as soon as possible.

37
Q

In any electrical system, what are the 5 main things that you have?

A

1) Source
2) Storage
3) Wires
4) Protection
5) Users

38
Q

Describe the lights on the R22

A
  • Red anti collision light on the tailcone (controlled by the strobe switch)
  • Position lights, red (left), green (right), white tail (controlled by the nav lights switch
  • Two landing lights (controlled by the landing lights switch)
39
Q

Landing lights operate only when what is acuated?

A

The clutch is in the engage position.

40
Q

How is the rotor tachometer signal provided?

A

Two magnetic senders at the main gearbox drive yoke.

41
Q

Each tach is on a separate what? Why is this

A

circuit, for redundancy

42
Q

When the battery and alternator switches are off, how do the tachs continue to receive power?

A

A bypass circuit connected directly to the battery.

43
Q

How do the chip indicators work?

A

When metal particles are drawn to the magnets they close an electrical circuit, illuminating the caution light.

44
Q

Where is the carbon monoxide sensor located?

A

Above the pilot’s heater outlet

45
Q

In case of a fire, what should you do with cabin heat?

A

Turn the cabin heat off

46
Q

If the tail is sitting within what distance from the ground, does the crosstube require replacement?

A

34 inches

47
Q

If the CO light comes on, what should you do? (4 things)

A

Shutoff heater
Open nose and door vents
If hovering, transition to forward flight
If you start to get symptoms, land immediately
