ABSTRACT:
A stability augmentation system utilizing a limited authority series actuator has an adaptive washout circuit which automatically reduces the effective washout system washout time constant as a function of attitude error or series actuator displacement. For small errors and for disturbances due to gusting winds, the system washout time constants are slow, thus providing good stability. For large errors the circuit smoothly reduces the time constants to keep the series actuators from saturating.
