Its two coaxial, contra-rotating two-bladed rotors have diameters of 4 m (13.1 ft). The main rotors are both of fixed pitch design, with no articulation in any axis. Steering is accomplished by pivoting the rotor head on a gimbal using a control handle, in a similar manner to a weight shift hang glider. Climb and descent is controlled by ...
The helicopter employs a relatively conventional design and construction. It is powered by a pair of Pratt & Whitney Rzeszów -built PZL-10B turboshaft engines; the original powerplant, the PZL-10W, was based on the earlier PZL-10S – a licensed derivative of the Russian-designed Glushenkov TVD-10 B turboprop engines which had powered the ...
