TM 1-1520-240-102-5-3Figure 2-5-2. Cyclic Stick Grip2-5-5. AFCS Trim Switch.NOTEIf the longitudinal CCDA fails, it can be recog-nized by loss of pitch trim or failure of thecentering devise to release. A centeringspring in the pitch axis allows these forces tobe over-come.The AFCS trim switch (fig. 2-5-2) is used to make smallchanges in the pitch (airspeed) and roll attitude while theAFCS is operating. The switch is spring-loaded to centeroff position. Moving the switch forward or aft from centeroff position commands an increase (forward) or de-crease (aft) in airspeed by driving a trim motor in thelongitudinal CCDA.Moving the switch left or right commands the roll ILCA tobank the helicopter in the selected direction without mov-ing the stick. Power is supplied to drive the pitch trimmotor from No. 1 AC bus through CLTV DRIVER ACTRcircuit breaker on the No. 1 PDP.2-5-6. Directional Pedals.The directional pedals (7 and 24, fig. 2-1-3) are used fordirectional control of the helicopter during flight and whiletaxiing with the forward gear off the ground.When the right pedal is displaced forward, the forwardrotor disk tilts to the right and the aft rotor disk tilts to theleft. The opposite action occurs when the left pedal isdisplaced forward. An ILCA is installed to assist the pilotin moving the pedals.The pedals are adjusted individually fore and aft bypressing a lever mounted on the pedal support and mov-ing the pedal to a new position before repositioning thelever. Insure that both pedals are adjusted equally (leftand right pedals in same respective hole position) andpedal adjustment lockpins are engaged. A balancespring is installed to reduce control sensitivity.2-5-7. Advanced Flight Control System. (AFCS)a.The Advanced Flight Control System (AFCS) sta-bilizes the helicopter about all axes and enhances controlresponse. It automatically maintains desired airspeed,altitude, bank angle, and heading. An automatic turn fea-ture, coupled to the pilot or copilot HSI (horizontal situa-tion indicator) is also included in the AFCS.b.Built In Test Equipment (BITE) is installed in eachAFCS computer. This equipment is intended for groundtroubleshooting purposes only. An interlock circuitthrough the engine condition control box prevents BITEuse anytime either ECL is out of STOP.c.Power is supplied to the HDG ENGAGED, BAROALT and RAD ALT ENGAGED lights from the DC essen-tial bus through the CAUTION PNL circuit breaker on theNo. 1 PDP. The No. 1 AFCS receives AC and DC busesrespectively through the AFCS NO. 1 circuit breakers onthe No. 1 PDP. The No. 2 AFCS receives AC and DCpower from the No. 2 AC and DC buses respectivelythrough the AFCS NO. 2 circuit breakers on the No. 2PDP.d.The AFCS consists of the following compo-nents:(1)A cockpit control panel.(2)Two AFCS computers in the avionicscompartment.(3)Three ILCA’s in the flight control closet.(4)A differential airspeed hold (DASH) actuatorin the flight control closet.(5)Two longitudinal cyclic trim (LCT) actuatorsare installed, one in the forward upper controls, the otherin the aft upper controls.(6)Roll and yaw magnetic brakes, a longitudi-nal CCDA, and a thrust CCDA are all located in the flightcontrols closet.
