In one or more embodiments, a method for providing continuously variable feel forces for an aircraft comprises sensing, by each of at least one sensor associated with at least one aircraft control, a force sensor value. The method further comprises determining a net force value by using the force sensor value for each of at least one sensor. Also, the method comprises comparing the net force value to a desired breakout force. In addition, the method comprises determining whether the net force value exceeds the desired breakout force. Additionally, the method comprises determining an adjusted force value by using the desired breakout force and the net force value, when the net force value exceeds the desired breakout force. Also, the method comprises determining an actuator torque command based on the adjusted force value. Further, the method comprises commanding an autopilot actuator with the actuator torque command to apply torque.
