@kirkjamestkirk

Thanks

[makinamati]

what are the labels on the gears??? are those energy bleeding labels, for such labeled systems????? can´t get it!

[fozzy40sqn]

@makinamati

Those labels are to indicate what the gears are driving : GEN=generator ; TQ/METER = torque pump ; OIL PUMP = oil pump ; NR TACHO = rotorspeed ; UTIL. HYDR = utility hyraulic pump ; HYDR. PUMP = hydraulic pump

@fozzy40sqn Hey, I have another question, do you know what percentage of the total power produced by the turboshaft is used to drive those systems you mentioned? without counting the power that is used to drive the main & tail rotors... btw , mega loved your swashplate animation! haha

@makinamati

I have no idea, but I'm sure this is only a very small percentage. During start up there is a moment when only the accessories (all the gears at the rear) are driven. At that time in the cockpit there's no indication of torque so it must be very small.

@nokinja 203 RPM to be exact
