70 Systems<br />

Flight controls group includes the following fixed (input) weights: cockpit controls and automatic<br />

flight control system. Flight controls group includes the following scaled weights: fixed-wing systems,<br />

rotary-wing systems, and conversion or thrust-vectoring systems. Rotary-wing flight-control weights can<br />

be calculated for the entire aircraft (using rotor parameters such as chord and tip speed for a designated<br />

rotor), an approach that is consistent with parametric weight equations developed for conventional tworotor<br />

configurations. Alternatively, rotary-wing flight control weights can be calculated separately for<br />

each rotor and then summed. The fixed-wing flight controls and the conversion controls can be absent.
