Q

On which panel can you find both the TAIL SERVO and BACKUP HYD PUMP switches?

A

MISC SWITCH panel

22
Q

The MMU is designed to reduce _____

A

Inherent Control Coupling

23
Q

If both tail rotor control cables fail the tail rotor wil automatically center at 10.5* pitch. This will allow trimmed flight between what airspeeds?

A

25 KIAS - 145 KIAS

24
Q

Collective/Airspeed to yaw mixing has what function?

A

Compensates for the torque effect caused by changes in collective position.

It decreases tail rotor pitch as airspeed increases and the tail rotor and cambered fin become more efficient.

25
Q

Name the four mechanical mixes provided by the MMU.

A

Collective to Pitch, Collective to Roll, Collective to Yaw, and Yaw to Pitch.

26
Q

How does the MMU minimize inherent control coupling?

A

By combining, summing, and coupling collective, pitch, and yaw inputs.

27
Q

Why is Collective/Airspeed to Yaw mixing completely phased out when the airspeed is above 100 kts?

A

Due to the efficiency of the tail rotor and cambered fin.

28
Q

The Primary servos are labled as:

A
  • LAT, AFT, FWD
  • Stage 1 and 2
29
Q

Moving the SERVO OFF switch from NORM to 1ST STG or 2ND STG will ______

A

Turn off that stage (1st or 2nd) of the three primary servos

30
Q

What prevents the two stages of the primary servos from being turned off simultaneously?

A

Electrical interlocks.

31
Q

The fluid quantity switch on the hydraulic pump module activates the appropriate RSVR LOW caution which indicates ______

A

A loss of hydraulic fluid for that system (Leak).

32
Q

What are the #1 and #2 hydraulic pumps mounted to and driven by?

A

The Accessory Modules.

33
Q

Why is the depressurization valve only connected on the Backup Pump?

A

To reduce output pressure of the pump upon startup of the electric motor.

34
Q

What components are in the Pilot assist area?

A

Trim (pitch)

Boost (Collective , Yaw , Pitch)

SAS (Pitch , Roll , Yaw)

35
Q

LDI is short for?

A

Leak Detection Isolation

36
Q

RSVR 1/2 LOW means:

A

Hydraulic fluid level has dropped below about 60% of full capacity (leak in the system).

37
Q

HYD PUMP 1/2 FAIL means?

A

No. 1/2 hydraulic pump output pressure below minimum.

38
Q

PRI SERVO 1 FAIL means?

A

First stage pressure is shut off, has dropped below minimum, or servo pilot valve has a jam

39
Q

T/R SERVO 1 FAIL means?

A

Pressure to the first stage tail rotor servo is below minimum, or the servo pilot valve has a jam.

40
Q

The No. 1 hydraulic system supplies hydraulic fluid through it’s transfer module to what servos?

A

The first stage primary servos and first stage tail rotor servo.

41
Q

The RSVR 1 LOW caution illuminates when?

A

When there is 60% fluid remaining in the reservoir (leak in the system).

42
Q

If a tail rotor cable breaks, what caution and/or advisory would appear?

A

T/R QUAD FAIL caution

43
Q

SAS OFF caution indicates?

A

Indicates a failure that affects both the SAS 1 and SAS 2 or loss of hydraulic pressure to the entire SAS system.

44
Q

BOOST SERVO OFF caution indicates:

A

Indicates loss of second stage hydraulic pressure to the collective and/or yaw boost servo

45
Q

FPS FAIL caution indicates?

A

One or more of the FPS functions has disengaged due to a failure (pitch or roll attitude, heading hold, or turn coordination).

46
Q

TRIM FAIL caution indicates

A

The trim actuator(s) are not responding correctly to the FCC signals.

47
Q

The No. 2 hydraulic system supplies pressure through the transfer module to what servos?

A

The second stage primary servos and the pilot-assist servos.

48
Q

Appearance of the BOOST SERVO OFF caution indicates what?

A

Loss of hydraulic pressure to the collective and/or yaw boost servo.

49
Q

The failure of the No. 2 hydraulic system illuminates what cautions / advisories if the backup pump fails to come on?

A

HYD PUMP 2 FAIL, PRI SERVO 2 FAIL, BOOST SERVO OFF, SAS OFF, TRIM FAIL and FPS FAIL.

50
Q

What is the purpose of the APU Accumulator?

A

Provide a hydraulic charge to the APU start motor.

51
Q

. In flight, the backup pump mode automatically sets to?

A

The AUTO mode even if the switch is in the Off or ON position.

52
Q

What does the backup pump supply pressure to?

A

No. 1 and/or No. 2 hydraulic systems, 2nd stage tail rotor servo and APU accumulator.
