A rotor blade rotated about a rotor hub is provided including a first section configured to mount to the rotor hub. The first section includes a spindle and an inboard torque tube surrounding a portion of the spindle. A second section of the rotor blade includes a flexbeam and an outboard torque tube attached to and surrounding the flexbeam. An inboard end of the flexbeam is rotatable coupled to a first end of the spindle. The second section is configured to rotate about a blade axis between an aligned position and a rotated position. A transitional brace configured to surround a portion of the rotor blade adjacent the coupled flexbeam and spindle is movable between a first position and a second position. When in the first position, the transitional brace limits movement of the second section about the blade axis.
