A typical helicopter has three flight control inputs: the cyclic stick, the collective lever, and the anti-torque pedals. [2] Depending on the complexity of the helicopter, the cyclic and collective may be linked together by a mixing unit, a mechanical or hydraulic device that combines the inputs from both and then sends along the "mixed" input ...
ST Engineering Aerospace Engineering Pte Ltd - provides depot level maintenance, aircraft upgrading, refurbishment, major structural repair and life extension programmes for a wide range of military and general aviation aircraft including helicopters. they also provide extensive base and line maintenance services for commercial aircraft such as the B737 and A320.
Servo transparency. In aviation, and in particular in helicopters, servo transparency (also called servo reversibility or jack stall), [1] is a phenomenon affecting the servomechanisms (or servos) that assist a helicopter's flight controls, which, in certain flight conditions, can result in a significant stiffening of the controls handled by ...
Cyclic/collective pitch mixing (CCPM) is a control concept employed in collective pitch radio-controlled helicopters. [1] CCPM reduces mechanical complexity and increases precision of control of the helicopter rotor 's swashplate. Unlike conventional systems in which a single actuator is responsible for a single axis, CCPM mechanisms allow ...
Singapore Aero Engine Service Pte Ltd (SAESL) is a 50/50 joint venture between SIA Engineering Company (SIAEC) and Rolls-Royce (RR). Formed in 2001, SAESL is a Trent Centre of Excellence, with its core business being the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) support operation of the full range of Trent engines as well as RB211 engines.
A hydraulic system is required for high speed flight and large aircraft to convert the crews' control system movements to surface movements. The hydraulic system is also used to extend and retract landing gear, operate flaps and slats, operate the wheel brakes and steering systems.
Avionics installation is a critical aspect of modern aviation, ensuring that aircraft are equipped with the necessary electronic systems for safe and efficient operation. These systems encompass a wide range of functions, including communication, navigation, monitoring, flight control, and weather detection.
