A method for directing formation flying of an aircraft includes sensing a relative position of a leader to a follower aircraft by one or more sensors disposed at the follower aircraft. The relative position is compared to a selected relative position, and a follower velocity of the follower aircraft necessary to move the follower aircraft to the selective relative position is determined via a flight control computer of the follower aircraft. The follower velocity is transformed into flight control inputs and the follower aircraft is moved to the selected relative position via the flight control inputs.

A computer-implemented method and system for controlling an aircraft based on detecting control element damage is disclosed. According to one example, a computer-implemented method includes detecting, by a processing system, damage to a control element of the aircraft. The method further includes characterizing, by the processing system, the damage to determine a corrective action to take based at least in part on the detected damage. The method further includes controlling, by the processing system, the aircraft based at least in part on the corrective action.

A method of controlling rotor moments includes receiving, in a flight control computer (FCC) a rotor moment reference value based on pilot inceptor inputs, sensing rotor moment from one or more sensors, receiving, in the FCC, a rotary wing aircraft condition parameter, and establishing, through the FCC, a rotor blade pitch angle for one or more of a plurality of rotor blades that counteracts external forces acting upon the rotary wing aircraft.

A system and method for counteracting a rotor moment of one or more rotors of a coaxial rotor helicopter includes receiving signals with a processor indicative of a displacement command from a controller during a flight maneuver; receiving one or more signals with the processor from a sensor indicative of an airspeed and air density for the helicopter; determining a commanded rate of acceleration for the helicopter during the flight maneuver; and adjusting with one or more control servos a cyclic pitch for the one or more rotors to counteract the rotor moment during the flight maneuver.

An aircraft is provided including an airframe, an extending tail, and a counter rotating, coaxial main rotor assembly including an upper rotor assembly and a lower rotor assembly. A translational thrust system positioned at the extending tail, the translational thrust system providing translational thrust to the airframe. A horizontal stabilizer with a left elevator and right elevator positioned at the extending tail. A flight control computer to independently control one or more of the main rotor assembly and the elevator through a fly-by-wire control system. The flight control computer is configured to mix a collective pitch of the main rotor assembly and a deflection of the elevator.

An aircraft is provided and includes an airframe defining a cockpit with first and second control stations configured for co-activation and complementary deactivation, flight control assemblies disposed at multiple locations of the airframe and a flight control computer (FCC). The FCC is configured to control operations of the flight control assemblies in accordance with current flight conditions and commands received at activated ones of the first and second control stations that are inputted by a flight crew. The FCC includes a secondary monitoring system to identify when commands are input at a deactivated one of the first and second control stations, to determine whether the commands are indicative of normal and intentional piloting inputs and to generate control station cues in an event the commands are indicative of normal and intentional piloting inputs to alert the flight crew of a hazardous condition or automatically turn the station back on.
