- Loss of tail rotor power. This is every helo pilots worse nightmare. If the drive shaft to the tail rotor (TR) should fail in any manner, or the TR transmission fail, the helo will spin and bad thing happen.
Imagine losing it completely. My Mothers house, before she purchased it, was burnt to the ground because of an accident involving an incorrectly installed tail rotor on an ultra-light.
