FM/BG-997.V1.00 - Weathervane recovery technique

If your tail rotor is damaged at low speeds, increase forward airspeed to stabilize the aircraft via the weathervane effect. increase altitude to 150m, lower collective fully to reduce spin, then pitch forward to gain speed. Controlled flight is possible once spinning stops. Landing will still require caution, as spin returns on slowdown.
