Main Rotorblades & Controls

The rotor head for the WASP helicopter is a two-bladed teetering type. A conventional swashplate transfers the collective and cyclic control motions from the stationary plane to the rotary.  The blades are constructed from carbon fiber material and are balanced about the quarter chord position.  Initial blade balancing is done by adjusting small weights at the blade tips and sweeping the blades by adjusting the length of the drag links.
