When you drop in height then increase the collective, or when you pull high negative g moves, the engines sound as if they are going to give up.

 

What exactly is happening here? Am I putting too much strain on the engines? Should I avoid this?

Kinda quiet. Perhaps I'll add another question then. When doing rocket runs, I occasionally find pulling back on the stick results in a huge movement pointing my nose to the sky. I lose all my speed very quicky and my center ap channel disengages. I may be hit by something at the time. Further testing is required. Any ideas?

The engines are whineing because when you increase the collective fast the rotor rpm is starting to drop. Therefore the governor is increasing the engines rpm quickly. The spooling up and high load cause that whine. High engine rpm then just adds to this effect.

And the ap channel disengages because the generator stops for a short while and the autopilot is reset. The same problem as in the KA-50.

Not possible to damage the engine if the governor (EEC) is on and operating properly. I don't think the game models EEC malfunctions, so unless you have the EEC off, you can't hurt the engine.

 

EDIT: I am assuming that your heavy engine demands are transient. That is, if you fly for an hour at max power, then yes, you will damage the engine.
