Report presenting an analysis of the measurements of drag-angle oscillation of a helicopter rotor made with the helicopter apparatus to determine both the natural frequencies and the damping required to prevent excessive drag-angle-oscillation response to various throttle and control movements. Results regarding symmetrical oscillations, unsymmetrical oscillations, blade damping, and general discussion are provided.

National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics Collection
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a U.S. federal agency founded on March 3, 1915 to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research. On October 1, 1958 the agency was dissolved, and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The Technical Report Archive & Image Library (TRAIL) identifies, acquires, catalogs, digitizes and provides unrestricted access to U.S. government agency technical reports. The mission of TRAIL is to ensure preservation, discoverability, and persistent open access to government technical publications regardless of form or format.
