The control stick may include a length and radius and configured to be manipulated along a plurality of axes, wherein the manipulation of the control stick produces an electronic signal, wherein the control stick is further configured to be manipulated rotationally about the length of the control stick. A first interface device disposed on the control stick may be configured to receive an interaction and adjust a lift of the dual-mode aircraft as a function of the interaction. A second interface device may be configured to receive an interaction and adjust the lift of the dual-mode aircraft as a function of the interaction.
