Hello everyone.
I am a college student and I'm studying Aircraft Maintenance Engineering right now. Right now I have an assignment that requires me to search and describe the rotor head and blades system for any chosen Helicopter. Guess what I've chosen? The Black Shark! Still I have to admit it is quite hard to find information on it. :helpsmilie:
The information I am looking for is:
1) What type of Rotor Head is installed
2) What type of blade movements are allowed on this head
3) What allows the movement?
4) Is there anything installed to limit this range of movement?
5) Identify how the head is secured to the mast
6) What type of anti-torque system is installed on the aircraft
So far, after seeing some pictures and doing some reading on Kamov Helicopters, I've assumed I got questions #1,2,3,6 really good. :smartass:
1) Fully Articulated
2) Flap, Feather and Hinge of each blade individually
3) Hinges
6) Anti Torque is created as a result of different spinning directions of the co-axial rotor
Questions 4 and 5 are quite hard. I would have to have access to a maintenance manual. Is it possible to have some feedback on the black shark here? Is it possible to have access to such information? I want to do my my project on a Kamov co-axial heli really bad, but I want to do it properly with good references. So, can anyone help me? If I'm not able to do that, I'll have to do my assignment on the Bell 206 or the MBB Bo 105 cause I have access to it's manual and well... it's not as interesting as a Kamov. Yeah. :(
