Abstract

A helicopter flight control system includes a model following control system architecture to control helicopter response about the yaw axis. The control system processes information from a variety of helicopter sensors in order to provide an output command signal to the tail rotor. Yaw control is accomplished by applying a force on a sidearm controller which provides a yaw axis command signal that is used to schedule a desired yaw rate of change. The lateral acceleration and airspeed signals are used to compute a synthesized yaw rate signal which is compared against the desired yaw rate of change, thus allowing the pilot to control lateral acceleration when he applies force on the sidearm controller.
