BUILT IN TEST: Requested BIT is further divided into? (2)

Automatic BIT is controlled by the operator?

Components of an AFCS: What establishes a datum within a frame of reference and measure deviations from it

What is the correct statement about Series Actuators?

The Automatic Flight Control System can be broken down in to two main areas of operation.

What area is shown in the image?

Autostabs - Returns an airframe immediately to its datum position following a disturbance by turbulence.

Automatic BIT: What is a sub-divide of Automatic BIT?

BUILT IN TEST: Requested BIT is controlled by the operator?

Auto Pilot functions - an automatic descent and forward deceleration to a pre-determined height

Autopilot - Enables the aircraft to carry out tasks beyond the basic stability of flight.

Error - Caused by change of aircraft’s centre of gravity due to fuel usage.

Caused by prevailing winds.

What is NOT an Auto Pilot function

Combined Actuator System. Label A, B, C and D

Auto Pilot functions - automatic climb and acceleration to controlled flight at a pre-determined Speed and Altitude

Components of an AFCS: What converts the information into a correction signal

Components of an AFCS: Allow the input datum

COMPUTATION: which of the following responses are used to control the output to a control surface. 

Damping - the system returns to equilibrium without oscillating, but slowly.

Coriolis force: The reference frame with clockwise rotation Northern Hemisphere , the force acts to left of the motion of the object.
