Drag Characteristics and Reduction Test for Hub of Coaxial-rotor Helicopter
The drag of coaxial helicopter hub accounts is more than 50% of the total helicopter's waste drag, so it is necessary to research the drag characteristics and reduction design of the hub. Wind tunnel test is carried out for a coaxial helicopter hub model,

Propeller control strategy for coaxial compound helicopters [PDF]
The coaxial compound configuration has been proposed as a concept for future high-performance rotorcraft. The co-axial rotor system does not require an anti-torque device, and a propeller provides axial thrust. A well-designed control strategy for the propeller is necessary to improve the performance and the flight dynamics characteristics.
