Many of the sound clips below were recorded on a reel to reel recorder in Vietnam. Troops listened to Sony radios, Akai stereos and Teac tape decks and new troops arrived weekly with the latest records from the states. All the songs of the '60s were part of the life in a combat zone. Almost every novel, memoir or oral history of the war by a veteran mentions the music that the author listened to in Vietnam.

We teach and learn by sharing what we know with others. But the basic operation and test is the same. The system looks and works slightly differently on different helicopter models. If the horn came on in flight, you’d use the low rotor RPM recovery procedure, as discussed in “ Reacting to Low Rotor RPM,” to regain RPM before it dropped to the point where it was not recoverable and became catastrophic.

In the test, I push the collective down to shut the horn off and let the governor roll the throttle back up.

A pilot who misses this would have to be blind and deaf (and thus, would not be good as a pilot).

At 97% RPM, the warning system engages with an audible horn and a light.

You can hear the engine pitch change and see the needles start to droop. (The system is required to function for flight so I test before every flight.) This requires me to raise the collective about an inch and then slowly roll off the throttle to reduce RPM.

I simulate a low rotor RPM situation to test the system.

When RPM gets to about 80%, the R44’s electronic governor takes over and brings it up to 100-102% engine RPM (the green arc).

Needles are matched for engine (E) and rotor (R) RPM. Watch the tachometer in the upper right corner.

I wind up the RPM by twisting the throttle.

I’d just come in from a flight and was getting ready to shut down when I decided to use my Flip camera to make the video.

At first the helicopter is at cool-down RPM (around 65%).

If you don’t read this, you won’t know what’s going on or why. The video is not narrated I wanted the helicopter sound to be heard. You can find the video at the bottom of this post.īefore you watch the video, please read this explanation. I thought it might be good to illustrate what it looks and sounds like on video.

Autorotation is not a Low Rotor RPM Emergency Procedure.

I’ve written at least twice in this blog about the low rotor RPM warning system on Robinson helicopter:
