A rotorcraft tail rotor comprising at least two blade elements, each blade element being suitable for pivoting about a collective pitch variation axis Z in order to vary the collective pitch of each blade element of the tail rotor, each blade element including at least one compensation weight comprising a projection emerging substantially perpendicularly to a main inertia axis of the blade element, the main inertia axis being parallel to a longitudinal direction of the blade element. In the invention, the tail rotor is wherein the compensation weight includes a deformable portion that is movable relative to the projection in a plane P that is parallel to the main inertia axis of the blade element.
