Abstract
A method includes determining, by a computing device comprising a processor, a value for at least one parameter related to an operation of a coaxial rotary wing aircraft; processing, by the computing device, the at least one parameter to determine control power available from one or more flight controls comprising a differential cyclic; and establishing, by the computing device, a value for the differential cyclic to create a net yaw moment for the rotary wing aircraft based on the determination of the available control power.
