ABSTRACT:
A cyclic stick system for a helicopter includes sensors for measuring at least one parameter representative of the current flight status of the helicopter. In response to the at least one parameter, the cyclic stick system either (1) continuously and automatically recenters the forces on the cyclic stick, thus canceling out the residual static forces, or (2) allows the pilot fully to feel the countering action of the elastic return device on the cyclic stick.
