That's not Rube Goldberg.
You want to see Rube Goldberg, take a look inside and E-2C or C-2A, especially with the rudder system and pitch feel system.
All twin rotor helicopter save Syncromesh and Coaxial have some form of Sync-Shaft that keep the two rotors synchronized and powered.
Granted, sync isn't a big deal on the V-22, but keeping both sides powered is.

You should see the rods and bell cranks inside an H-46 flight control cabinet.

I would like to know the person who designed the gear box on the TU-95 Bear, that must have taken some high power Jethro Bodine Russian ciphering and gonkulating to make those props go. Has to make a legacy Hercules look simple.

Have you SEEN an Osprey fold itself up like Stephen Hawking? THAT'S Rube Goldberg...
