Abstract

A rotorcraft includes a fuselage, a flight control computer, an auxiliary flight controller having one or more flight control inputs in the noncockpit section of the fuselage and a relay interposed between the flight control computer and the auxiliary flight controller such that the auxiliary flight controller is in data communication with the flight control computer via the relay. The relay prevents electromagnetic interference affecting the auxiliary flight controller from affecting the flight control computer.
