That thing still has no glide capacity in case of engine failure:-O
I’d imagine they have more than choppers, which have the glide capacity of a sack of cement.
Transmissions are linked in event of an engine failure.
I think the auto-gyro effect would still work.
It glides well enough to get to the scene of the crash.
Auto rotation, look it up.
While technically capable of autorotation if both engines fail in helicopter mode, a safe landing is difficult; in 2005, a director of the Pentagon’s testing office stated that in a loss of power while hovering below 1,600 feet (490 m), emergency landings “...are not likely to be survivable.” V-22 pilot Captain Justin “Moon” McKinney stated that: “We can turn it into a plane and glide it down, just like a C-130.” A complete loss of power requires both engines to fail, as one engine can power both proprotors via interconnected drive shafts.
Sure it can glide.
Vertically.
