Abstract

See full text

A control system has an HHC actuator having a basal portion and a movable portion. A load acting on the control system is detected by a semiconductor gauge. The load detected by the semiconductor gauge is compared with a threshold value in a computer. If the detected load is larger than the threshold load, the movable portion is fixed to the basal portion by a fixing mechanism. By detecting the sign of stall of blades, the HHC actuator is fixed in a neutral position, allowing safe flight. A fixing switch is provided for allowing the fixing mechanism to operate regardless of the result of the comparison with the computer.
