CHAPTER 64
TAIL ROTOR
64-00 Description
The R66 tail rotor assembly is a conventional, two-bladed teetering rotor system.
Tail rotor blades are constructed of a wrap-around aluminum skin, bonded to aluminum
honeycomb and a forged aluminum root fitting. Self-lubricating spherical bearings in the root
fitting allow blades to change pitch.
Tail rotor blades are assembled to the hub with a fixed precone angle.
The tail rotor aluminum hub mounts to the gearbox output shaft by teeter hinge. Elastomeric
bearings in the hub allow the rotor to teeter. The tail rotor hub teetering stop is a urethane
bumper, attached to the output shaft
.

A. Removal
1. Refer to Figure 64-1. Tag each pitch link with corresponding blade serial number for

NOTE
Tail rotor pitch link-to-blade attach bolts may be different lengths
and/or have different washers installed under nut for dynamic
balancing. Reinstall hardware as removed.
2. Remove nut and A141-14 washer securing C119-2 bumper to tail rotor gearbox output
