TECHNICAL FOLLOW-UP
For your own safety and that of other users, you should take the habit of regularly consulting the “Technical Publications” section of the Dynali Helicopter Company website www.dynali.com. You will find there :
general information from Dynali Helicopter Company technical modifications to be made to the helicopter future planned evolution new associations, clubs and meetings.
The objective of this flight manual is to provide you with the technical parameters which will enable you to benefit from your helicopter under optimum conditions.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The main purpose of this manual is to focus on safety.
Please take the time to read it attentively.
It is essential to warn you about several risks that are too often underestimated or neglected through force of habit and to provide you with the experience acquired by the whole family of pilots of light helicopters.
We have therefore placed on the first pages the warnings that all pilots must constantly bear in mind.
A helicopter is, by its nature, a capricious and unstable machine which is subject to both the laws of the air and of physics. Furthermore, its mechanical components comprise a total chain which is both complex and precise. It requires care and maintenance. Please study carefully the specific characteristics and the recommendations which follow. These are derived directly from the authorities responsible for the study of accidents. They summarise the major causes of accidents involving light helicopters.
CHARACTERISTICS SPECIFIC TO LIGHT HELICOPTERS
- Low inertia of the rotor (this is not the case with the Dynali H2S).
- Rotor rocking ; sudden movement of the cyclic stick or certain flight conditions with light loading may cause the rotor to rock to the limit, which may cause fracture of the rotor mast (mast bumping).
- Relatively low reserve power in certain conditions such as transition phases, high altitude flight or air conditions : high temperature, turbulence,…
- Maximum loading suddenly attained and a marked difference between the aircraftʼs characteristics in solo flight and heavy dual flight.
- A piston engine has little inertia ; with the slightest drop in engine speed the rotor will “freewheel”. In icing conditions, for example, the engine may simply stop as compared with a

fixed wing aircraft which will still be provided with thrust for a moment by its propeller. The governor system may hide the early stages of icing.
PRINCIPAL CAUSES OF ACCIDENTS IN LIGHT HELICOPTERS
- Over-confidence of pilots with great experience on other types and who believe, wrongly, that a light helicopter is a very forgiving machine.
- Insufficient awareness of the limitations of the machine.
- Flare-out at too low altitude (engine failure or in training).
- Transition phase with the helicopter : impossibility of lateral correction and prevention of lateral rollover. Dynamic rollover can sneak up on you.
- Loss of rotor RPM in the event of failure of governor.
PRIMARY SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
In the event of a risk of overturning on the ground (dynamic rollover) lower immediately the collective control and also press down the pedal on the side of the tipping. Stabilise hover at 3ft prior to departure (hover recommended at between 3ft and 3,5ftm) Best flight conditions are above VPM and at sufficient altitude. Cruise above 1000ft. Speed both in climb and cruise at over 60kts (always above VPM). In the event of a reduction in rotor RPM, lower the collective immediately and increase fuel-flow. Auto-rotation training should be undertaken over a known surface and under favourable conditions, mass, light headwind, temperature. If you are flying solo (and unless you are undergoing instruction by a Dynali H2S qualified instructor), limit autorotation exercises and open the throttle at 150ft. Avoid sudden inputs to the controls. Sufficient power while flying at a high altitude.
PILOT CODE
Keep both hands on the controls especially when close to the ground, (it is prohibited to release the collective control and even more so the cyclic stick when in immediate proximity to the ground). Concentrate ! Be attentive at all times as nothing is ever sure. Beware of over confidence. Never fly if you are not feeling in perfect shape. In no case fly when you are influenced by alcohol, lack of sleep or stress… Danger if thereʼs an obligation to fly, demonstration flights, obligation to go from point A to point B, flying through bad weather. Pre-flight check and check out (always conduct these vital procedures with the greatest rigour). No risky flying ! Machine in perfect condition, engine idling smooth. At the slightest unusual noise or vibration or any other doubt, interrupt the start-up procedure and check. No risky or unusual manoeuvres.

Veterans beware! Almost half of all light helicopter accidents occur with pilots unaccustomed to these types but who have more than 1000 hours flying time on larger machines. Do not land in long grass :
Danger for the fans Danger of snagging the undercarriage skids Fire risk danger : the exhaust may set fire to the grass.
ALWAYS THINK OF YOUR SAFETY DURING FLIGHT AND BE AWARE OF THE
LOCAL POSSIBILITIES FOR AUTO-ROTATION.
WHEN FLYING IN MOUNTAINOUS REGIONS THINK OF YOUR CLEARANCE AT
ALL TIMES AND WATCH YOUR RPM, ESPECIALLY DURING SHORT FINAL
APPROACH !
Landing and taking off among trees places you in danger for a short time. It is up to you to evaluate the risks. Always calculate a safe trajectory and bear in mind the possibility of engine failure.
REDUCTION OF MENTAL FACULTIES IN FLIGHT (HUMAN FACTORS)
It should be remembered that, in flight, we are not in our natural element. Our analytical capacity is reduced by unconscious stress and this becomes more severe in the event of problems as we lose part of our faculties. We no longer notice factors which worsen the situation (obstacles, loss of RPM,…) and we easily accumulate errors. In flight, our analytical capacity is reduced by half. Accidents are always the consequence of an accumulation of circumstances. All possible sources of failures must be studied with an instructor.
OTHER RISK FACTORS…
With a heavy payload, limitations are more restricted. Wind shifts and other aerial phenomena must be taken into account. The vortex danger : descending too fast and catching up with your own turbulence. The rotor operates in turbulent air and loses a large part of its lift. This phenomenon is present at all altitudes : 10,000 or 10 feet. A too rapid vertical descent or a forward moving descent with a tail wind. Descending between obstacles while moving slowly forward and with a light tail wind!! The « buzzing » of friendʼs homes, which is the first cause of crash. Reduced power margin.
Theoretical example : If the power when stationary is X, the transition to forward flight
requires additional power, thus equal to a minimum of X + y, if the transition is commanded too suddenly and with too much amplitude towards forward flight, the power demand may be greater than the available reserve of power. Conversely, if you transition from hover to forward flight with gentle movements of the controls you will cause your aircraft to accelerate into forward flight with very little extra power.
Theoretical example : you fly one circuit and you land. If you slow down too quickly with a high sink rate on the vertical speed indicator, you may lack the power to stop your aircraft in hover position. Always opt for a safe final approach with a vertical speed indicator showing

less than 100ft/min on a short final taking care to monitor the power progressively prior to hover (it is worth noting that at the correct power calculated for hover already set at 10ft from the ground, the helicopter will settle by inertia at the correct height for the hover, i.e. 3ft).
Theoretical example : You arrive at a high altitude field and it is hot. You have consumed part of the fuel and, pre-flight you have studied the altitude/mass/temperature charts. Theoretically you are within the safe limits but stay wary all the same and watch your rotor RPM during short final. If the low RPM warning lights up, break away downwards while slightly lowering the collective to recover the lost rotor revs. Never forget that:
An accumulation of factors may lead to an increased need for power. Power limits make flying the helicopter more delicate. Takeoff and landing must be performed gently while always using techniques which use the least possible power.
To be learned by heart:
In case of engine failure, lower the collective to the limit, use the left pedal to avoid a yaw to the right, attain safe speed as quickly as possible and a trajectory which will bring you to a safe landing spot. During descent, take care to manage your rotor RPM. Flare out to stationary position followed by applying pitch control input one or several times to soften your contact with the ground. (Never forget that a good flare perfectly controlled and a non-sliding landing will themselves take care of your safety). Even if the final is late or early, if you avoid a sliding landing you have every chance of emerging intact after your engine failure).
If the rotor RPM greatly exceeds the normal operating range, do not panic. This does not mean that you should ignore the RPM during auto-rotation. On the contrary, these must be checked by the pilot but if, in a short final at the end of the flare-out, you exceed the upper limit of the rotor RPM, no panic, continue your auto-rotation. Once the landing has been completed, and depending on the extent of the excess RPM, you should ask for technical assistance or expert advice.
Note : in the context of the hours of flight instruction with the instructor, mast bumping will be studied theoretically on the ground only.

To avoid doubt when to increase or decrease fuel flow,
MORE FINGERS = MORE FUEL
(meaning the side of the throttle grip where the four fingers are placed)
LESS FINGERS = LESS FUEL
(meaning the side of the throttle grip where the thumb is placed)

2.14. LIMITATIONS ON MANŒUVRES IN FLIGHT
- Daylight VFR flight is permitted.
- Night VFR flight is prohibited with CNSK2 registration.
- IFR flight is prohibited with CNSK2 registration.
- Aerobatics are prohibited.
- Flight in icing or snowing conditions is prohibited..
- Maximum altitude density for operation is 4000 m
- Transport capability : 2 persons on board, including pilot.
- Solo flight : the pilot must use the left hand seat.
- Safety belts must be fastened both on an empty seat and on the pilotʼs seat.
- Flight with one or both doors removed is authorised..
- With doors removed, all objects in the cabin must be attached..
- Wearing of a helmet is strongly recommended.
Note : Even within the EASA countries, certification requirements differ. Worldwide, the H2S may be registered under CNSK, CNRA, LSA, experimental, amateur built or other national regulatory systems. Dynali can supply all documentation required by certifying authorities
Depending on the agreements reached in each country concerned, the H2S may fly at night and even under IFR conditions with special equipment (control panel lighting, navigation lights, strobe lights, two artificial horizons, (1 pneumatic, 1 electrical) landing light, mode C transponder, VHF radio, distress beacon. This type of certification, negotiated in each country, can be justified by the technical specification and the performance of the H2S.

Turning and banking
Banking between 10° and 45° (desirable range in normal use)
It has been demonstrated that at a speed above 2/3 Vpm, or 40 kts, in a 45° angle of bank coordinated turn the machine does not lose altitude during the first 60° of turn. As from 60° additional collective should be applied to compensate for sinking.
Banking between 45° and 90° (extreme range, not advisable for beginners !)
It has been established that a turn at 90° bank is the equivalent of +3,5G load factor.
2.15. LIMITATIONS ON TAKEOFF
Dynamic rollover is always lateral.
When the collective is in the extreme lower position, the point of balance is at around 45° inclination. When the collective is pulled up to the limit for takeoff, the balance point is at no more than 10° inclination because the rotor is exercising a pull. Take care always to take off gently, making sure that the skids leave the ground vertically. There is a moment of risk during takeoff.
If the pilot fears a suction effect on the skids (frost, mud, entangling vegetation) he must take care to takeoff with first the left skid. As soon as this detaches from the ground, the pilot brings the cyclic back to the centre position to release the right skid. Dynamic capsizing is treacherous as it starts gently. When placing in hover, the stick takes a too large lateral corrective position. Initiation of the hover should be immediately interrupted and lower the collective. The pilot should then seek out the reason or reasons that the skid has been held on the ground and not attempt a further lift off until he is aware of all the causes of the problems. Prior to initiating the takeoff again, he should check the following points :
- Is the balancing correct ?
- Is the passenger in the right hand seat too heavy ?
- Is the crosswind too strong ?
- Is the slope beyond the operating limits of the machine ?
- Is there an obstacle blocking the skid on the ground ?

2.16. LIMITATIONS ON LANDING ON SLOPES
Forwards (i.e. tail downhill) ................................................................................ 15°
Lateral right (i.e. bottom of the slope on the right) .................................... 10 to 12°
Lateral left (i.e. bottom of the slope on the left).................................................... 8°
Note : these conditions should be avoided as far as possible. Prefer landing at 45°. (see below)
Backwards (i.e. tail uphill) .................................................................. PROHIBITED
Note : when obliged to land on sloping ground, always try to land at 45° to the axis of the slope. You will reduce the risk of dynamic rollover.
2.17. LIMITATIONS TO LOAD FACTOR (mast bumping)
AS WITH ALL TWO BLADE ROTOR HELICOPTERS, THE DYNALI H2S CAN NOT FLY WITH A ZERO OR NEGATIVE LOAD FACTOR AS THIS CAN RESULT IN A CONFIGURATION WHICH CAUSES MAST BUMPING.
The rotor flap is only (relatively) stable when its centre of gravity is lower than the axis of its teetering hinge.
Furthermore, under a low or negative load factor, the helicopter is still pushed laterally by the tail rotor and rolls over even faster on account of its low mass.
Mast bumping only occurs on twin rotor blade helicopters. It occurs when the load factor moves from a level of +1G towards 0G. It is initiated as from +0,5G.
Mast bumping starts with a loss of lateral control of the helicopter from the thrust of the rear rotor and may end with the fracture of the rotor mast.
! AVOID ALL SUDDEN TRANSITION FROM HORIZONTAL FLIGHT TO A DIVE BY PUSHING THE CYCLIC FORWARD OR SUDDEN TRANSITION FROM CLIMB TO HORIZONTAL FLIGHT.
! IN GENERAL AVOID ANY STRONG, SUDDEN CYCLIC MOVEMENTS IN LOW G CONDITIONS AS THIS MAY PROVOKE PARTIAL WEIGHTLESSNESS (REDUCTION OF G FORCES); IF A ROLL STARTS AT THAT TIME, PULL BACK GENTLY ON THE CYCLIC IN ORDER TO REDUCE THIS LOSS OF G (which is the equivalent to re-loading the rotor) BEFORE CORRECTING THE ROLL.
Note : during the instruction period, mast bumping will be studied in theory with the instructor on the ground only.

3.1. GENERAL
Speed provides your reserve of potential energy. Altitude 1m in hover ; absolutely avoid hovering above 2m (7ft). While in transition, speed and altitude are the keywords for safety.
Flare out allows you to convert speed into lift, while maintaining full rotor RPM. In the event of the loss of rotor RPM, provided that a speed close to Vpm has been maintained, one can always, using the flare effect, recover a large part of the lost rotor RPM. In all cases and for all kinds of touring flight, you should always maintain a speed close to the Vpm. The difference lies in the fact that in the second case, you will have no possible recourse in the event of engine failure, see the height/speed diagram – every possibility of succeeding in an auto-rotation landing in the first case)
Altitude gives you time during which you can retain control of your manœuvres. This time also enables you, if things go wrong, to select a better landing ground.
A FLARE PROVIDES THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF AUTO-ROTATIVE ENERGY. Auto-rotation procedure, see Chapter 4.
3.2. ENGINE FAILURE – GENERAL
• Loss of power may be caused by a failure of the engine or the transmission.
• A change in the noise level, a yawing or a drop in RPM may be the sign of an
engine failure.
• Transmission failure may be indicated by unusual noise or by vibrations and major yawing. In all cases, initiate auto-rotation.
• Auto-rotation procedure, see Chapter 4.
3.3. ENGINE FAILURE ABOVE 500 ft
• Initiate auto-rotation immediately.
• Select landing area.
• Possibly attempt re-start (throttle to idle).
• Preferably land into the wind.
3.4. ENGINE FAILURE AT LOW ALTITUDE
Takeoff manœuvres must be undertaken according to the height/speed grid shown in Chapter 5.
Page 31
FLIGHT MANUAL DYNALI HELICOPTER COMPANY Edition N°3 DYNALI H2S January 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________
31
3.5. ENGINE FAILURE AT LOW ALTITUDE AND LOW SPEED
If the Quick Stop is no longer possible, make a sliding landing :
• Left pedal down
• Above 1,5m (5ft), slightly lower the collective
• Below 1,5m (5ft), do not lower the collective
• Measured use of collective to cushion the contact with the ground.
3.6. GOVERNOR FAILURE
If the governor fails in flight, manually control the engine revs and reach a landing site making an approach at a normal angle of descent. The throttle control must be handled to ensure maximum power and RPM. The co-relation throttle/pitch is not efficient enough at high altitude and great attention should be paid to reducing throttle at the moment when the collective is lowered in order to avoid excess engine speed.
Note : The H2S is equipped with a limiter for high motor RPM. Do not hesitate to give full throttle if you are worried about the governor failure which has just occurred as, by doing this, you will retain:
• full power
• rotor RPM
The only inconvenience of this is that the noise of the high RPM setting is characteristic as it is linked to the injection system which, in this precise case de-synchronises the ignition which gives the impression of miss-firing in the engine while actually providing maximum power.
3.7. BEST AERODYNAMIC EFFICIENCY IN AUTO-ROTATION
• Speed, around 110 km/h - 60 kts
• Rotor revs, around 95%.
3.8. ENGINE RE-START PROCEDURE
• Throttle to idle.
• Governor OFF.
• Start with left hand.
! DO NOT ATTEMPT RE-START IF ENGINE MISFUNCTION IS SUSPECTED OR WHEN SAFE AUTO-ROTATION HAS NOT BEEN ESTABLISHED.
3.9. FORCED DITCHING WITHOUT POWER
• Auto-rotation procedure until contact with the water.
• Turn helicopter onto left side on contact with water in order to stop the rear
rotor.
Page 32
FLIGHT MANUAL DYNALI HELICOPTER COMPANY Edition N°3 DYNALI H2S January 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________
32
3.10. FORCED DITCHING UNDER POWER
• Position in hover over water.
• Unlock doors.
• Evacuate passenger.
• Move away from passenger downwind if the wind is strong (the passenger
will move towards the crash which may enable him to provide assistance to the pilot)
• Throttle to idle, left foot down, slow the descent.
• Lay the helicopter on its left side on contact with the water in order to stop
the rear rotor.
3.11. FAILURE OF REAR ROTOR OR TRANSMISSION DURING TRANSITION
Sudden yaw to the left which can not be corrected with the right pedal if speed below 100 km/h - 54 kts. (If speed above 100 km/h - 54 kts, the steering effect of the asymmetric vertical stabiliser will ensure maintenance in the axis of the fuselage)
• Initiate auto-rotation immediately, then adjust power
• Maintain 110 km/h - 60 kts so that the steering effect of the tail remains
effective.
• Reduce throttle and slightly increase the collective. Hold the cyclic to the right in order to limit the drift.
• On final, throttle to idle and sliding landing under auto-rotation.
3.12. FAILURE OF REAR TRANSMISSION OR ROTOR DURING HOVERING FLIGHT
• Sudden yaw to the left that can not be corrected with the right pedal
• Throttle to idle and land under auto-rotation.
3.13. ENGINE FIRE DURING STARTUP
• If the engine starts, it may aspirate the flames and the excess fuel.
• If the engine does not start or if the fire does not immediately extinguish
itself, cut the engine and evacuate.
• Extinguish the fire with an extinguisher, a woolen covering or with earth or sand..
3.14. ENGINE FIRE IN FLIGHT
• Descend rapidly in auto-rotation.
• If the engine is running, use the throttle and land normally.

33
3.15. WARNING LIGHTS
Red lights Low rotor RPM - warning horn 92%
Action : lower the collective and twist the throttle grip through the governor to recover immediately the lost RPM.
Several solutions are possible :
• You are at altitude: you have an altitude margin below the helicopter, you can thus firmly lower the collective and twist the throttle to recover the revs.
• You are in mountains, close to terrain on short final and you can not lower the collective on account of the terrain below the helicopter. In this case you must divert immediately towards the valley while slightly lowering the collective and applying throttle to recover the rotor revs.
In all events you should not continue the approach if you have a low RPM warning light.
Orange battery charge warning light
The alternator has failed. The electronic ignition of the engine is linked to the battery and operates independently of the alternator. Reduce power to avoid the activation of the cooling fans and land safely as soon as possible.
Orange low fuel level warning light (Low fuel)
This warning lights up when there remains only 10 L of usable fuel. The engine will run dry after approximately 20 minutes operation at nominal power.
ACTION : YOU MUST LAND AS SOON AS THIS WARNING LIGHTS UP, IN THE FIRST AVAILABLE FIELD BELOW YOU.
Orange filings detector warning – main transmission box
This warning lamp lights up if metal particles are detected in the main transmission box. Action : you should land without undue urgency or precipitation within 5 minutes
Orange filings detector warning – rear transmission box
This warning lamp lights up if metal particles are detected in the rear transmission box Action : you should land without undue urgency or precipitation within 5 minutes
Red warning indicator for low pressure in the cooling fluid.
This warning is activated if there is a leak of cooling fluid. Action : you should land without undue urgency or precipitation within 5 minutes
Red warning indicator for low engine oil pressure :
Page 34
FLIGHT MANUAL DYNALI HELICOPTER COMPANY Edition N°3 DYNALI H2S January 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________

4.3. CHECKLISTS : WARNINGS
Never fly directly after a mechanical intervention. Check free movement of controls before start-up, check that all tools used during the maintenance have been removed. Start up in the usual way and remain on the ground for some time before taking off and transitioning with caution.
The principle of takeoff is the same as for an aeroplane. Think about the ambient conditions : the fuel level and load as well as the aerological conditions, wind speed and direction. Check the terrain and possible obstacles. Decide in advance on the best takeoff route. Start out from the end of the field if necessary to provide room for acceleration. Intelligence and concentration !
The engine may be started before settling in on board as it is a good idea to run the checklist while it is warming up and to observe while it is idling.
(No passenger alone on board while engine running !)

4.8. AUTOROTATIONS
This is the most important manœuvre which it is essential to master completely
TRAINING EXERCISE:
(the complete engine shut down exercise must only be performed with the instructor)
- Establish a safe altitude (1000ft AGL – 300m AGL),
- Check safety below, both in front and on both sides,
- Lower the collective to bottom limit,
- Reach and maintain a speed of 100 to 110 km/h – 55 to 60 kts
- During descent, manage rotor RPM (if rotor speed too high, (use collective to bring the needle of the rev counter to 100%, then return to bottom limit and repeat as necessary during descent)
- At around 10/15m – 30/45 ft, commence flare by deliberate movement of the cyclic without moving the collective
- Retain a non-skidding attitude as regards your anticipated impact point.
- On completing flare (at the precise moment that the tail starts sinking) flatten out, (still in non-skidding attitude) and hold up the aircraft using the collective but without causing the aircraft to climb.
- Accept that the progressive application of the collective results in a regular but slow loss of altitude.
- Accept the lighting up of the low RPM warning light.
- Accept the sounding of the low RPM warning siren
- At around 30cm (1ft) from the ground (estimated height which can vary by +/- 20cm), continue to apply the collective until contact established with the skids (still in non-skidding
attitude)
- THE INERTIA OF THE ROTOR OF THE H2S MUST BE MAINTAINED.
- THE DESIRED SPEED DURING DESCENT AND AT THE MOMENT OF INITIATION OF THE FLARE MUST BE ABOVE VPM AND CLOSE TO 100 km/h – 55 kts.
- IT IS THE FLARE WIHCH WILL TRANSFORM AT THE INSTANT (during the flare and until its completion) YOUR SPEED INTO LIFT SO AS TO STOP THE FORWARD MOVEMENT OF YOUR AIRCRAFT.
- STOPPING IN THIS WAY TAKES EFFECT AT A DISTANCE FROM THE GROUND APPROXIMATELY EQUAL TO THE DIAMETRE OF THE ROTOR WITHOUT HAVING « USED UP » REVS (i.e. without having acted on the collective)
- AS FROM THE END OF THE FLARE AND LEVELLING OUT ALL THE KINETIC ENERGY THAT CAN BE DELIVERED BY THE ROTOR CAN BE USED TO COMPLETE THE FINAL AND TO LAND GENTLY.
- NEVER HOLD THE AIRCRAFT UP USING THE COLLECTIVE PRIOR TO THE FLARE.

Do not leave the seat while the rotor is turning. When at a standstill, do not brake the rotor by raising the collective. At low revs, the wind can cause the rotor blades to swing down to head height. All movement of personnel under the rotor circumference at standstill is extremely dangerous. It must be prohibited. (in the case where boarding or disembarking of a passenger is
necessary while the rotor is turning instruct your passengers to move away to the front of the helicopter and keep very low)
e.g. : landing on a mountain or on unstable terrain which makes it impossible to stop the engine.
4.10. CHECKLIST (following flight)
After cutting the engine : Monitor the stopping time of the rotor. Get into the habit of placing oneʼs hand on the RTG and to control the thermal stamp.

6.1. GENERAL
The purpose of this chapter is to provide the information and the required elements to enable the calculation of the mass and balancing of the H2S helicopter in service.
6.2. LONGITUDINAL BALANCING
WARNING
The field of balancing is conditional on the flight controls being well adjusted and with full free movement. The original setting of the horizontal stabiliser must not be modified.
Longitudinal balance is limited between the two balancing extremities fore and aft which correspond to the limits tested in flight. Between these two extremities, fore and aft, anything is permitted as long as the maximum takeoff weight of 700 kg is not exceeded.
EMPTY WEIGHT
Empty weight is the mass of a Dynali H2S helicopter empty but including :
− basic on-board equipment
− engine oil
− engine coolant
− the various lubricants
− the unusable quantity of fuel (2,5L)
The empty weight as well as the empty C.G. must be measured for each H2S helicopter once assembly is complete. There will be slight differences in the empty weight as well as the position of the C.G. from one helicopter to another.
STANDARD EMPTY WEIGHT
Empty weight of a helicopter of the type measured at the Dynali plant.
PAYLOAD
Difference between the maximum takeoff weight and the empty weight.
METHODS OF DETERMINING EMPTY WEIGHT
− Suspend the helicopter from a balance.
− Find a technical weighbridge for vehicles (in customs or in an industrial zone).
− Locate 4 sets of human scales 2 under each skid, on at 20 cm behind the axis of the wheel
attachment and one 26 cm forward. A delicate and imprecise operation.
Page 53
FLIGHT MANUAL DYNALI HELICOPTER COMPANY Edition N°3 DYNALI H2S January 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________
53
METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE EMPTY C.G.
− Roll the H2S onto a round bar under the skids
− The bar must be placed perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis
− Hold the helicopter with the mast vertical, in balance on the bar.
− A spirit level is placed on the receiving pulley, this being perpendicular to the mast.
− The virtual junction of the axis of the mast and the skids is 190mm forward of the axis of
the attachment of the rear wheel.
=> measure the distance between the bar and the axle of the rear wheels (Normally 75 mm). A simple subtraction will permit the determination of the C.G. point: 190 mm – 75 mm = 115 mm = basis for the calculation.

Maximum takeoff weight ....................................................................... 700 kg
Maximum landing weight......................................................................... 700 kg
Standard empty weight ........................................................................... 465 kg
Standard payload .................................................................................... 235 kg
Datum point ............................................... defined as the axis of the rotor mast
Forward balance limit, distance from datum ......................................... 122 mm
Aft balance limit, distance from datum ................................................... -34 mm
DETERMINATION OF LONGITUDINAL BALANCE
Each part of the helicopter is associated with a mass (weight) expressed in kg and in moment in relation to the datum point expressed in kg*m. This moment corresponds to the mass of the part multiplied by the distance from the C.G. of the part in relation to the datum.
Before each flight you must :
- Firstly determine the balance of your Dynali H2S. You should verify that the position of the C.G. of your Dynali H2S, at the moment of takeoff, is within the fore and aft balance limits.
- You must also make sure that the takeoff weight of your Dynali H2S does not exceed the authorised Maximum Takeoff Weight of 700 kg.
These two conditions are met if the point defined by the takeoff weight and the position of the C.G. are within the area for longitudinal balancing (see illustration of longitudinal balance area).
If either of these conditions is not met, you must cancel the flight. Either plan on takeoff with a lighter load or with a different spread of the mass in the cabin, or both.
The table below summarises the weights, distance in relation to the datum point and the moment associated with the elements of the helicopter and its payload.

BALANCE LIMIT
Minimum mass of solo pilot 60 kg. Below this mass, when the fuel runs low, the limits of aft balance may be exceeded. Below this mass, ballast must be added to maintain the equivalent of 60 kg minimum on the passenger seat. In hovering flight, at the limit of the aft balance, the Dynali H2S will be inclined 2° to the rear. At the forward balance limit, the H2S will be inclined 3° forward. Below are two examples of calculating balance. The points defined by these two examples are reflected in the longitudinal balance graph.

6.4. LATERAL BALANCING
The Dynali H2S is equipped with dual controls. Except in solo flight when the pilot must be in the left hand seat, the Dynali H2S can be piloted from either the left or the right hand seat. In order to guarantee the airworthiness of the aircraft, the left hand side of the helicopter must always be heavier than the right.

THE HEAVIER OF THE TWO MUST BE IN THE LEFT HAND
SEAT
SOLO PILOT (must be in left hand seat)
Minimum weight of solo pilot : 60 kg Maximum weight of solo pilot without ballast in right hand seat : 110 kg
110kg on the left = limit of acceptable cyclic movement to the right to maintain operational manoeuvrability. Above 110 kg in the left hand seat, add ballast in the right hand seat corresponding to the surplus weight of the pilot over and above 110 kg
Maximum weight of solo pilot: 135 kg
TWO MAN CREW
Place the heavier person in the left hand seat.
NB : The condition for balance to compensate for the thrust of the tail rotor is 13 kg more on the left hand seat (**) so that the mast is vertical in hover. However the aircraft remains completely manoeuvrable but with a list. See chapter 6, paragraph 6.4.
(**) This explains the need for solo pilots to use the left hand seat.
CARRIAGE OF BAGGAGE IN HOLDS
Spread the baggage so that the left hand side of the aircraft remains the heavier.

7.1. GENERAL
The goal of this chapter is to introduce to the pilot who has not assembled his helicopter, the systems of the Dynali H2S. For further information, refer to the assembly manual. However, we would advise the pilot to read the assembly manual.
7.2. CABIN SHELL
The Dynali H2S is a single engine two-seater helicopter with a single main rotor, of primarily metallic construction and equipped with a skid type undercarriage. The highly resistant basic structure or the cell is made of stainless steel tubes to provide passive safety to the crew.
A part of the tail tube and the strengthening stays are in aluminium. A carbon-kevlar fairing is installed but is not structural. The firewall is made of Kevlar and M2F2 fireproof resins
7.3. UNDERCARRIAGE
The undercarriage is made of aluminium tubes; it is of the energy absorbing type with two legs on each side (passive safety)
7.4. MAIN ROTOR
- When still, the blade roots withdraw in their bearings on their spindles to the limit. The overhanging mass of the blades creates a high level of force on the blade roots.
- The blades are made of composite materials (glass fibre / carbon / aeronautical resin).
- The blades are held by aluminium roots, which incorporate a system for adjusting the alignment.
- Four stop bearings with oblique contact allow for the varied incidence of the blade when pitch adjusted.
- The two flanges swing over around the head of the mast on combined bearings.
- The rotor head is of the swing-over type without flapping.
7.5. REAR TURBINE OR ANTI-TORQUE ROTOR
- The anti-torque rotor has eight blades. It enables for a small diameter which increase safety.
- The eight blades are made in composite carbon/kevlar, held in split blade sockets.
- The blade sockets are held in smooth plates of Teflon.
- The anti-torque rotor is protected by a tail surround made of carbon.
- The entire construction is designed to provide full protection for the anti-torque rotor.
Page 62
FLIGHT MANUAL DYNALI HELICOPTER COMPANY Edition N°3 DYNALI H2S January 2012 __________________________________________________________________________________
62
7.6. TRANSMISSIONS
- A small driving pulley is bolted directly onto the shaft emerging from the clutch shaft. Eight trapezoid belts transmit the movement of the main pulley to the upper pulley which contains the two free wheels. The shaft transmits the movement towards the front of the main rotor via the main transmission box and towards the tail rotor via a flexible joint then to the rear transmission box.
- The long transmission shaft for the rear rotor is supported by bearings in the tail tube.
- The main transmission box includes conic gearing with helicoidal cogs providing a single reduction stage, lubricated by an oil bath. It is cooled by the circulation of the oil and by an air vent.
- The rear transmission box also contains a pair of conic gears with helicoid gears lubricated by an oil bath. The inward and outward shafts are made of stainless steel.
« HIGH » OIL LEVELS IN THE MAIN TRANSMISSION AND OF THE TAIL ROTOR GEARING ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT ; MAINTENANCE OF THIS HIGH LEVEL IS DESIGNED TO AVOID CAVITATION.
7.7. ENGINE
Subaru DS EJ25 engine Stroke : 2500 cm

Power : 180HP Motor structure : Subaru Electronic injection : MOTEC Exhaust : Dynali
7.8. FLIGHT CONTROLS
Standard equipment includes dual controls. The cyclic on the passenger side can be removed. All controls are activated via shafts with maintenance free ball joint ends. The flight controls of the Dynali H2S operate in the same way as the controls of most other helicopters. The cyclic and the collective control the pitch of each blade via a cyclic teetering hinge.
The cyclic stick is double but the two elements can be separated. The regulations only allow dual control during pilot training with an instructor.
The collective is also of the classical type with a twisting throttle grip. An electronic system controls the fuel supply as a function of the collective but fine adjustment is still necessary and is supplied by a servo called the governor. The governor acts on the air intake valve of the injection system. It is commanded by the computer. The friction of the collective is adjusted by the torque tightening of its attaching bolt. It is possible to take off with a failed governor but the pilot must then adjust the throttle grip to maintain 100% on the rev. counter until landing)

63
The pedals operate the pitch control for the blades of the tail rotor through two teleflex cables. Note : the control cables are not submitted to any special strain, a system of contra-rotating pinions neutralises the thrust efforts.
7.9. ENGINE - CLUTCH - DRIVE BELTS
The H2S has an automatic centrifugal clutch. The drive belt tension is regulated by a floating tension spring. In the receiving pulley there are two free wheels.
7.10. FUEL CIRCUIT
The fuel is supplied to the injection system by two electric pumps.

8.1. GENERAL
This chapter describes the recommended procedures for the handling and maintenance of the Dynali H2S helicopter. Any person designated by the assembler of the kit or the new owner is authorised to undertake this maintenance, under the responsibility of the owner.
We ask that each new owner makes himself known to, and remains in close contact (via the Internet) with the Dynali Helicopter Company in order to receive regular updates concerning the Dynali H2S.
In the event of the sale of his helicopter the original assembler passes the manuals to the buyer and asks him to make contact with Dynali. Additionally the Internet site displays new information of interest to all. The e-mail address is :
www.dynali.com
The official regulations stipulate that the responsibility and the maintenance of a helicopter sold in kit form lies exclusively with assembler-owner-operator of this helicopter. He must ensure that all maintenance is performed in compliance with the maintenance manual. All limitations, procedures, safety procedures, service lifetimes and maintenance conditions set out in the present manual are considered as imperative.
8.2. OBLIGATORY DOCUMENTS
The following documents must be maintained permanently on board the aircraft :
1. Restricted airworthiness certificate
2. Identification certificate
3. Radio operation certificate (if the helicopter is equipped with a radio transmitter)
4. Flight manual in English
5. Log book
6. Civil responsibility insurance
8.3. MAINTENANCE
All work must be noted in the appropriate log book supplied by Dynali with the document set.

8.4. MODIFICATIONS TO THE AIRCRAFT
PROTOCOL OF AGREEMENT FOR A MODIFICATION TO A DYNALI H2S
By these presents it is understood and defined as follows :
The assembler of the kit (or client)
I, the undersigned,…………………………. Undertake to inform Dynali Helicopter Company of any modification that I wish to perform…………………………….. on my Dynali H2S kit.
Procedure to follow for the modification of a kit.
If a client wishes to modify his kit, he must show that he has established the appropriate contacts with Dynali Helicopter Company to be able to declare to the ministry of civil aviation that the aircraft, as modified, still complies with the conditions of airworthiness notified by the ministry when the kit was declared to be eligible.
Dynali Helicopter Company declines all responsibility for any modification of the kit undertaken outside the above framework.
8.5. MANEUVRES ON THE GROUND
- PRECAUTION : climbing onto the undercarriage and step onto any part of the structure in stainless steel to examine the rotor :
- On skids, the helicopter is manoeuvred on the ground on its retractable wheels.
- Manœuvre using the tail = better hold = better overall view.
8.6. PARKING AND TIEING DOWN
-Always align the blades in the longitudinal axis of the aircraft.
-The slightest wind will cause the rotor blades to flap. Always use a strap to attach the rear blade to the tail tube. Ideally two straps will retain the blade perfectly and avoid the risk of strong gusts putting the whole aircraft in danger.
-In stormy weather or when the wind is very strong, the helicopter should be placed in a hangar or evacuated to a safe place.
