Abstract:
A mechanically simple rotor system is a novel mechanism that collectively drives the pitch of the rotor blades by combining the input from three separate servos. Each servo can be controlled by redundant control systems. This configuration reduces total error caused by any one system and allows the continuation of rotor pitch control in the event of one or more servo or system failures.
