AUTOTHROTTLE CONTROL FOR TURBOPROP ENGINES

There are described methods and systems for providing an autothrottle mode in a propeller-driven aircraft. A thrust change is obtained corresponding to a difference between an actual thrust and a desired thrust for an engine (110). When greater than a pre-determined threshold, a setting change to on...

Zusammenfassung:	There are described methods and systems for providing an autothrottle mode in a propeller-driven aircraft. A thrust change is obtained corresponding to a difference between an actual thrust and a desired thrust for an engine (110). When greater than a pre-determined threshold, a setting change to one or more control input(s) (201) of the engine (110) is determined. One or more commands is output to cause the setting change of the control input(s) (201).
