I lost Tail rotor authority while hovering, started turning left 90degrees, after full right pedal, still turning My trainer taught me to back off some throttle to stop the turning & then set it down, all went well, problem was a broken tail rotor universal joint

I’ve seen you can pump the collective to control LTE with training , pushing down quickly then up slow to maintain height.I’ve not done it yet but have used pumping for stuck cyclic it tips the disc forward or back to control speed.

Damn I got the lifetime commercial rotor package when you first started I guess 10 years ago, or whenever your camera fell over. I guess I got a deal!
