Influence of Lift Offset on Rotorcraft Performance [PDF]

open access: yes
The influence of lift offset on the performance of several rotorcraft configurations is explored. A lift-offset rotor, or advancing blade concept, is a hingeless rotor that can attain good efficiency at high speed, by operating with more lift on the ...
