Carb Heat
I heard, somewhere, that if you apply full carb heat and then
immediately lower the collective (on R22s and 44s)this can cause the engine to run rough and in extreme cases can even cause engine failure.I s there any evidence for this or is it just a silly rumour? I have, up until now, always pulled on full carb heat just before descending now I wait a few seconds before lowering the collective.
