Default RE: Gyroscopic procession
Hi Kriegsmacht !!! Apparently the Flettner 282 Kolibri used lead-lag hinges for the blades, and combining lead-lag with contra-rotating rotors must have cancelled out gyroscopic forces, allowing for easy controllability. Sounds like a cool project for an enterprising individual to undertake !!! Happy Flying !!! Charlie Anderson
