Method for piloting a hybrid helicopter having an airframe maintained at constant incidence by regulating a position of at least one mobile tail unit surface

A method for controlling a hybrid helicopter having at least one lifting rotor, at least one forward-movement propeller and an empennage provided with at least one moveable empennage surface. The method includes the following steps: using a main sensor to determine a current value of a rotor paramet...

Zusammenfassung:A method for controlling a hybrid helicopter having at least one lifting rotor, at least one forward-movement propeller and an empennage provided with at least one moveable empennage surface. The method includes the following steps: using a main sensor to determine a current value of a rotor parameter conditioning a current power drawn by the lifting rotor, using an estimator to determine a current setpoint of the rotor parameter, adjusting a position of the moveable empennage surface using a deflection controller as a function of the current value and of current setpoint.
