Abstract

A flight control system includes a user input apparatus configured to receive a flight change input from a user via a manual manipulation of a position of the user input apparatus. A sensor is coupled to the user input apparatus and configured to determine a change in the position of the user input apparatus. The sensor is also configured to generate position data. A feedback controller is configured to selectively receive the position data and further configured to generate a feedback-control signal when a commanded attitude, corresponding to the change in the position of the user input apparatus is equal to a predetermined threshold. A haptic feedback device is coupled to the user input apparatus and configured to receive the feedback-control signal and, in response to receiving the feedback-control signal, generate haptic feedback motion of the user input apparatus.
