2. Servo transparency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_transparency

   A helicopter's main rotor hub. The vertical rods are at the end of the control chain that starts with the pilot controls. Helicopter flight controls are connected to the main and tail rotors, and include a cyclic stick, broadly to control forward-aft and left-right movements, a collective lever, broadly to control vertical movements, and anti-torque pedals, to control left and right yaw.

3. Turning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

   Turning is a machining process in which a cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helix toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotates. Usually the term "turning" is reserved for the generation of external surfaces by this cutting action, whereas this same essential cutting action when applied to ...

4. Autorotation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autorotation

   Autorotation is permitted mechanically because of both a freewheeling unit, which allows the main rotor to continue turning even if the engine is not running, as well as aerodynamic forces of relative wind maintaining rotor speed. It is the means by which a helicopter can land safely in the event of complete engine failure.

5. Helicopter rotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_rotor

   The tail rotor is a smaller rotor mounted so that it rotates vertically or near-vertically at the end of the tail of a traditional single-rotor helicopter. The tail rotor's position and distance from the center of gravity allow it to develop thrust in a direction opposite that of the main rotor's rotation, thereby countering the torque effect ...

6. 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.
