i agree kev, when i say overspeed i ment at or past the redline..or above the poh numbers stated for max rpm with power off ( ie amount X for X seconds) for example the 206 is max107% power off. but on the same game of fine balancing all elements too high rpm increases your rate of descent and decreases your glide range.

the only reall question you need to be able to answer "YES" to is ,will you make the spot!

i too will play with the rotor prm using cylic, turns or slight nose up or down...if its minor.

overpeed...bad...but inertia.....good...a fine balance indeed..lol

OK, understood. I thought you were of the "stay in the green" school...

Yeah, making the spot is a priority and the factory pilot showed me more in 1 hour's time than any instructor ever did about making the spot..

I know I've stretched the auto a bit by flying at the lower RPM limit in an R44 to get near the spot and then "banked" some RPM with a semi-aggressive flare to set down.

I think the numebr one priority is to get the heli on the ground and walk/stumble/crawl away from what the insurance company just bought.
