Curious if having the hinge offset on a teetering rotor system would be possible. Thinking offset the hinge 6" or so and link the 2 sides together so they still flap.
If my understanding is correct this should give me a better cg range without having the attitude of the fuselage vary so much.
Working on a concept with a wider 2g range than most 2 place designs ( want to fit in 120lbs of dogs ) though I would imagine most larger transport helicopters have a proportionately larger range.
Has this ever been tried. Would the loads on the links be too great?
