ABSTRACT:
A pilot-operated lever assembly for adjusting control surfaces of an aircraft including a bobweight for creating inertia forces that simulate a force feedback due to aerodynamic forces on the control surfaces. The bobweight effect is variable as a function of airspeed and other operating variables. An actuator for adjusting the geometry of the lever assembly creates a variable bobweight effect. The mass of the actuator acts as a bobweight mass.
