A rotor blade pitch control system (15) comprising a rotor blade (19a, 19b, 19c, 19d) rotatable about both a central axis (20) and a pitch axis (24a, 24b, 24c, 24d), a pitch drive rotor (32a, 32b, 32c, 32d) rotatable about the central axis independently of rotation of the rotor blade about the central axis, a pitch follower (40a, 40b, 40c, 40d) rotatable relative to the pitch drive rotor, the pitch drive rotor and the pitch follower having an eccentric axis (33a, 33b, 33c, 33d), a linkage (50a, 50b, 50c, 50d) between the pitch follower and the rotor blade configured such that the pitch follower rotates with rotation of the rotor blade about the central axis, the pitch drive rotor, the pitch follower and the linkage configured such that the pitch drive rotor may be driven to control an angular displacement of the pitch drive rotor relative to the pitch follower about the central axis and thereby control the pitch of the rotor blade about the pitch axis.
