TRANSMISSION
The transmission is an upgraded version of the Bell 230 transmission. The cases have
been machined to accept wider face width gears and larger capacity bearings.
The transmission is mounted on the cabin
r o o f just forward of the power plant. It
accepts and combines power from the two
engines to drive the main and tail rotors.
E a c h o u t b o a r d p o w e r i n p u t q u i l l
(sometimes referred to as "KNUCKLE ")
incorporates a sprag-type freewheeling
clutch to permits single engine operation.
An inoperative engine does not become a
burden as the other engine takes automatic
action to compensate for the loss of power.
Additionally, the clutches insure continued
operation of the tail rotor and transmission
mounted accessories (hydraulic pumps)
