Ground Mode

Surface deflection is proportional to stick deflection

configuration,• 2.0 g with the flaps

Flight mode – Pitch Control

if there is no input on the stick:• The aircraft maintains the flight path, even in

case of speed changes• In case of configuration changes or thrust

variations, the aircraft compensates for the pitching moment effects

• In turbulence, small deviations occur on the flight path. However, the aircraft tends to regain asteady condition.

Flight mode – Pitch Control

• Flare requires the pilot to apply permanent aft pressure on the sidestick, in order to achieve a progressive flare.

• Whereas, derotation consists of smoothly flying the nosegear down, by applying slight aft pressure on the sidestick.

Flight mode – Roll Control

IVAOHK

Flight mode – Roll Control

During a normal turn (bank angle less than 33 °), in level flight:• The more the sidestick is moved laterally, the greater

the resulting roll rate - e.g. 15 °/s at max deflection• Not necessary to make a pitch correction• Not necessary to use the rudder.In the case of steep turns (bank angle greater than 33 °)• Lateral pressure on the sidestick to maintain bank• Aft pressure on the sidestick to maintain level flight.
