Figure 4.13: Target velocity <strong>an</strong>d actual helicopter velocity.<br />

have been inherited <strong>an</strong>d have shaped the development of the PFCM. For<br />

example, the fact that a geometric segment was precomputed <strong>an</strong>d given<br />

to the control system without taking into account the dynamic constraints<br />

of the helicopter, has led to the development of the feedback algorithm to<br />

update the control point on the reference path.
