摘要: A yaw control system for a helicopter having a tailboom includes one or more tail rotors rotatably coupled to the tailboom and a quiet mode controller. The quiet mode controller includes a noise monitoring module configured to monitor one or more flight parameters of the helicopter and a quiet mode command module configured to selectively switch the one or more tail rotors to a quiet mode based on the one or more flight parameters. The quiet mode command module is also configured to modify one or more operating parameters of the one or more tail rotors in the quiet mode to reduce noise emitted by the helicopter.

摘要: An electrically distributed yaw control system for a helicopter having a tailboom and a power system includes one or more tail rotors including a motor rotatably coupled to the tailboom and a power distribution unit. The power distribution unit includes a power management monitoring module configured to monitor one or more flight parameters of the helicopter and a power management command module configured to allocate power between the power system and the one or more tail rotor motors based on the one or more flight parameters of the helicopter.

摘要: An electrically distributed yaw control system for a helicopter having a tailboom includes a plurality of tail rotors rotatably coupled to the tailboom and a flight control computer implementing a tail rotor balancing module. The tail rotor balancing module includes a tail rotor balancing monitoring module configured to monitor one or more parameters of the helicopter and identify a first set of one or more tail rotors in the plurality of tail rotors based on the one or more parameters. The tail rotor balancing module also includes a tail rotor balancing command module configured to modify one or more operating parameters of the first set of tail rotors.
