Tail Rotor Hub

Pave Hawk angled right-side four-blade tail rotor hub with control rods and links. The angle of the tail rotor creates a vertical component to the lift vector of the tail rotor. This vertical component is sufficient enough that 2.5% of the total lift created by the rotor system on the HH-60G is created by the tail rotor.
