Abstract

818,357. Controlling aircraft. AEROTECNICA S.A. June 24, 1955 [June 26, 1954], No. 18377/58. Class 4. An aircraft, and particularly a gas-turbine propelled rotating wing aircraft as disclosed in Specification 818,358 is provided with automatic control means comprising an existing control component of the aircraft capable of yielding in response to airspeed against a resistance to effect a control operation. A pair of rudders A are each pivoted by a fork 1 at the extremity of an arm C mounted in the fuselage by a fixer pivot F. Each rudder is provided with a further connection 3 to a control rod L connected by a bell crank 4 and rod R to a pilot's control member (not shown), whereby the rudders may be rotated in unison for directional control of the aircraft and to compensate for main rotor torque. The inner ends of arms C are connected to rods 7 in turn connected to a slide element H mounted on a shaft G and spring-urged forwardly. With increasing forward speed of the aircraft rudders A are moved rearwardly by air pressure to cause slide H to move against spring action over shaft G. The slide H, the movement of which may be damped, is connected to apparatus to be controlled (not shown).
