SUMMARY: The FAA is revising Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2011-22-05 for the product listed above. AD 2011-22-05 required checking the control rod for play before the first flight of each day.

The actions in this AD are intended to prevent failure of a T/R control rod, loss of T/R control, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective April 17, 2014.
