The optional yaw damper reduces Dutch roll tendencies, coordinates turns, and
provides a steady force to maintain directional trim. It can operate independently
of the autopilot and may be used during normal hand-flight maneuvers. Yaw rate
commands are limited to 6 deg/sec by the yaw damper.
3.1.2 FLIGHT CONTROL
Pitch and roll commands are provided to the servos based on the active flight
director modes. Yaw commands are provided by the yaw servo. Servo motor control
limits the maximum servo speed and torque. This allows the servos to be overridden
in case of an emergency.
3.1.3 PITCH AXIS AND TRIM
The autopilot pitch axis uses pitch rate to stabilize the aircraft pitch attitude during
flight director maneuvers. Flight director pitch commands are rate and attitude-limited,
combined with pitch damper control, and sent to the pitch servo motor. The pitch servo
measures the output effort (torque) and optionally provides this signal to the pitch trim
motor. The pitch servo commands the pitch trim motor to reduce the average pitch
servo effort.
3.1.4 ROLL AXIS
The autopilot roll axis uses roll rate to stabilize aircraft roll attitude during flight
director maneuvers. The flight director roll commands are rate- and attitude-limited,
combined with roll damper control, and sent to the roll servo motor.
3.1.5 YAW AXIS
The yaw damper uses yaw rate and roll attitude to dampen the aircraft’s natural
Dutch roll response. It also uses lateral acceleration to coordinate turns and reduce
or eliminate the need for the pilot to use rudder pedal force to maintain coordinated
flight during climbs and descents.
