Control system for rotorcraft for preventing the vortex ring state

   
   

A flight control system for a rotorcraft to prevent the adverse effects of the vortex ring state is disclosed. In the flight control system of the present invention, selected control inputs are sent the rotorcraft prior to the onset of the vortex ring state. In the preferred embodiment, the control inputs are transient, do not require input from the pilot, and do not affect the flight path of the rotorcraft.

Un sistema de mandos de vuelo para que un rotorcraft prevenga los efectos nocivos del estado del anillo del vórtice se divulga. En el sistema de mandos de vuelo de la actual invención, las entradas seleccionadas del control se envían el rotorcraft antes del inicio del estado del anillo del vórtice. En la encarnación preferida, las entradas del control son transitorias, no requieren la entrada del piloto, y no afectan la trayectoria de vuelo del rotorcraft.
