Q about 200SD

[blade4oo]

have a Q about the 200SD dose the tail spin when you autorotate or dose the tail stop spining it just looks like the gear for the tail is runing on the pinion gear?

The tail isn't driven during an autorotation.

i've never seen a video of a successful auto with a 200. you'd have to be a really good pilot to pull it off, because it would happen FAST

It landed in one piece now didn't it, and how could you make it any better if you have no control over the tail. And, could you do it any better?

ya, i could do it better. now that is funny. the only way i could fly better than adelaw, is if we jumped in a real helicopter. i've done lots of autos in a real heli. too scared to try them in the 200. but listen heli cuzz, when ever you feel froggy, jump to it. no autos for me.
