Its main rotor
Has a center point A located L above point O
Is spinning at rate R relative to the body around the vertical axis
Has four blades of length
Has blade tips B C D and E located respectively to the right, left, front, and back of point A
Questions: For all questions below, assume that each rotor blade has a point mass m attached at its tip.
If the body of the helicopter is pitching forward at a constant rate
bodypitch
and has constant mainrotor rotational speed, what is the contribution to the moment at A on the main rotor from the acceleration of the mass at point D on the main rotor?
