The Static Source in the pitot static system goes to which instrument(s)?
Airspeed Indicator & Altimeter
In the Northern Hemisphere, if an aircraft is accelerated or decelerated, the magnetic compass will normall indicate...?
Correctly when on a north or south heading. (A.N.D.S)
What is cyclic feathering?
The periodic and automatic pitch changed or the rotor blades independently of each other.
Where is the Sprague Clutch located on the R22?
In the center of the upper sheave.
What is the purpose of the Sprague Clutch?
the sprague clutch enables the rotors to freewheel if the engine quits, thus allows auto-rotation.
What is the purpose of the clutch?
To disengage the heavy main rotor from the engine during startup to save the stater motor.
What is the range of the GREEN ARC for the rotor tachometer on the R22?
101%-104%
During auto-rotation, whats to be done if your RPM's begin to drop?

(random, not in lesson 1)
LOWER collective; If lowered all the way, apply small inputs of AFT cyclic.
What is the purpose of the cyclic?
To tilt the main rotor disc in the direction of desired horizontal flight.
Deviation in a magnetic compass is caused by...?
Magnetic fields within the aircraft distorting the line of magnetic North(force).
What does the red line on the airspeed indicator represent?
"Vne" (Velocity Never to Exceed)
During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic compass accurate?
During straight-and-level, unaccelerated flight.
How many cylinders does the R22's engine have?
4
Magnetic Dip error does what as you travel north when north of the equator?
Becomes worse.
What is the range of the yellow arc for the manifold pressure gauge in the R22?
19.6-24.1 in/hg
Changing the altimeter setting by 0.1 inch will change the indicated altitude by?

What is the voltage of the Alternator?
Alternator- 14 Volts @ 60amps
What is DETONATION?
Detonation is the uncontrolled spontaneous explosion of the mixture in the cylinder.
What is Preignition?
Preignition is the premature burning of air/fuel mixture.
What type of engine is on the R22 Betta II?
Lycoming O-360-J2A
What does the Manifold Pressure gauge tell us?
Displays the amount of power being produced by the engine to turn the main rotor blades.

FYI- Yellow Arc is 19.6-24.1
How many magnetos does the R22 have and what is their purpose?
2 Magnetos

Act as small AC generators powered by the engine to produce high voltage that gets sent through the distributor where it then gets directed to the spark plugs.
The primary purpose of the tail rotor is to...
...counter act the torque effect of the main rotor.
