ABSTRACT:
In the present invention, the DEC output voltage is limited by comparing the DEC output and the Collective input to a predetermined maximum acceleration and generating an error signal when the maximum acceleration is exceeded. The error signal is fed back to the DEC and acts to limit its output. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a method of limiting the output of a DEC by generating a first signal representative of the acceleration demanded by the DEC, generating a second signal representative of the acceleration demanded by the collective, adding the first and second signals to form a third signal representative of the total demanded acceleration, generating a fourth signal representative of the maximum allowable demanded acceleration, subtracting the third signal from the fourth signal to obtain an error signal, and limiting the DEC output signal according to the error signal.
