2. Explain major four control system of helicopter.

3. A HELICOPTER TOTOR has 4 m dia rotating at 200rpm with a AOA of 3 degree flying
at 3000m above sea level, has a thrust of 151N a find the induced drag to lift ratio , flying at
20 m/s. and resultant velocity of 12m/s if the lift coeff is 0.3 , and also find what will be
thrust coefficient.
