Depending on customer configuration a spinner may be installed. As an option, the Woodcomp KW30 hydraulic constant speed variable pitch propeller may be fitted.
Aircraft AutoGyro Maintenance Manual Cavalon 915 iS / 916 iS CHAPTER 62 - ROTOR The two-bladed, semi-rigid, teetering rotor system comprises high-strength aluminium extruded rotor blades, a hub bar, and a common teeter hinge assembly. Due to their working principle, every two-bladed teetering rotor system induces a certain amount of vibration, depending on flight condition (speed) and disc loading.
Aircraft AutoGyro Maintenance Manual Cavalon 915 iS / 916 iS 62-31-00 Rotor Head Bridge, Bearing and Teeter Tower The rotor head bridge is made of welded stainless steel. Rotor bearing (Manufacturer Life Limited!) and teeter tower represent one integrated component.
Aircraft AutoGyro Maintenance Manual Cavalon 915 iS / 916 iS 63-11-30 Pre-rotator Upper Engagement The pre-rotator upper engagement comprises a drive pinion with bearing, which is engaged by a small pneumatic actuator into the geared ring / sprocket wheel of the rotor head. The drive pinion is sliding on a helical gear to provide automatic lock-out in case of rotor RPM overrun.
