Abstract

Various flight control components can be operated through gearbox driven rotary actuators. In the event of a jam occurring the gearbox, the gearbox can be decoupled from a surrounding support housing to enable free-trailing or limited motion relative to the support housing. The motion may or may not be damped. Decoupling the gearbox enables the flight control component to move to a neutral or non-interfering position even when user control over the component has been lost.
