Helicopter tail rotor thrust and main rotor wake coupling in crosswind flight [PDF]
, 2010 The tail rotor of a helicopter with a single main rotor configuration can experience a significant reduction in thrust when the aircraft operates in crosswind flight. Brown’s vorticity transport model has been used to simulate a main rotor and tail rotor
