  2. Helicopter rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_rotor

    An example of two-blade rotor is the Bell 212, and four blade version of this helicopter is the Bell 412. [23] An example of the effect of rotor blade number is the UH-72 ( EC145 variant ); the A model had four blades, but the UH-72B was changed to five blades which reduced vibration. [ 24 ]

  3. Swashplate (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swashplate_(aeronautics)

    Linkages (silver) to the rotor blade In aeronautics , a swashplate is a mechanical device that translates input via the helicopter flight controls into motion of the main rotor blades . Because the main rotor blades are spinning, the swashplate is used to transmit three of the pilot's commands from the non-rotating fuselage to the rotating ...

  4. Helicopter flight controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_flight_controls

    Location of flight controls in a helicopter. Helicopter flight controls are used to achieve and maintain controlled aerodynamic helicopter flight. [1] Changes to the aircraft flight control system transmit mechanically to the rotor, producing aerodynamic effects on the rotor blades that make the helicopter move in a desired way.

  5. Coaxial-rotor aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coaxial-rotor_aircraft

    A rotor blade produces more lift in the advancing half. As a blade moves toward the direction of flight, the forward motion of the aircraft increases the speed of the air flowing around the blade until it reaches a maximum when the blade is perpendicular to the relative wind. At the same time, a rotor blade in the retreating half produces less ...

  6. Tail rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_rotor

    MD Helicopters 520N NOTAR. McDonnell Douglas developed the NOTAR (NO TAil Rotor) system, which eliminates having any rotating parts out in the open. The NOTAR system uses a variable pitch ducted fan driven by the helicopter's powerplant, but the ducted fan is mounted inside the fuselage ahead of the tail boom, and the exhaust passes through the ...

  7. Intermeshing-rotor helicopter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermeshing-rotor_helicopter

    An intermeshing-rotor helicopter (or synchropter) is a helicopter with a set of two main rotors turning in opposite directions, with each rotor mast mounted with a slight angle to the other, in a transversely symmetrical manner, so that the blades intermesh without colliding.
