An exemplary rotorcraft includes a propulsion system including a prime mover and a drive shaft coupled to the prime mover, the drive shaft including a coupling separating the drive shaft into an input shaft and an output shaft, the coupling operable between an engaged position rotationally coupling the input shaft and the output shaft and a disengaged position rotationally disengaging the output shaft from the input shaft, a main rotor coupled to the prime mover, a secondary rotor attached to the output shaft, and a motor coupled to the output shaft.
