ABSTRACT:
A control system for rolling airframes utilizing variable pitch control surfaces includes a variable inertia device within the control system connected to the servo control motors that control the control surfaces, with the variable inertia device selectively controllable to optimize the inertia of the control system for optimizing the power requirements of the control system. The variable inertia means includes a rotatable mass with means for moving the effective position of the mass radially inwardly and outwardly from the rotary shaft of the control system for selectively varying the inertia of the control system.
