Tail?

A

258

1189

24
Q

How is Rotor control provided?

A

Through the flight control hydraulic servos, which move control rods attached to the swashplate assembly.

25
Q

How is the hydraulic fluid in the main rotor dampers pressurized?

Where is that hydraulic fluid stored?

A

It is Nitrogen-pressurized

a reservoir mounted inside the main rotor shaft.

26
Q

Pitch control rods extend from the ___ to the ___ on each spindle

A

rotating swashplate

pitch change horns

27
Q

Describe the main rotor blade.

A

Pressurized hollow spar, honeycomb core, outer skin, abrasion strips, electrothermal deicing mats, and a removable swept-back blade tip fairing.

28
Q

How can you tell if the Main rotor blade is damaged?

A

The Blade Inspection Method (BIM) indicators show a black indication due to nitrogen escaping.

29
Q

What happens if you lose both tail rotor control cables?

A

a spring-tension feature of the tail rotor control system will provide positive pitch on the tail rotor equivalent to left pedal for a midposition collective power setting

30
Q

What happens if you lose one tail rotor control cable?

A

The tail quadrant will operated normally by controlling the remaining cable against spring tension.

You will get a TAIL ROTOR QUADRANT caution

31
Q

Whenever locking or unlocking the gust lock, the GUST LOCK switch shall be held in the LKD or UNLK position for a minimum of __ to enable the actuator mechanism to complete its cycle.

A

5 seconds

32
Q

How many sections does the tail drive shaft have?

What connects them?

A

six

Viscous damped bearings

33
Q

What does the Input module do?

A

Provides the first gear reduction between the engine and the main module.

34
Q

How does the engine output shaft provide drive from the engine to the input module?

A

the Diaphragm coupling

35
Q

What does the Accessory module provide?

A

mounting and drive for the AC Gen and Hyd pump module.

36
Q

Where is the Main Transmission low-oil pressure sensor located?

A

Left accessory module

37
Q

Describe the route that Transmission oil takes

A

Oil is pumped from the sump to the Oil Filter (can be bypassed), then to the oil cooler, then through the various modules

38
Q

Where are the pressure readings for the VIDS taken at?

A

MGB manifold inlet

39
