Pitch Hold Prevents pilot having to constantly control pitch attitude in
turbulent air (e.g. TURB switch in 747-400)
Autopilot mode analysis/design, 2 important questions: Which type of control device do we use?
Elevator
What type of feedback loop structure (sensor)? Vertical gyro

Pitch Hold Example: Cessna 620 𝐾𝐾 = 0.5 Short period damping goes from ζ = 0.716 to ζ = 0.464 But it still satisfies the requirements, so no inner loop
(SAS loop) is required.

Elevator
What type of feedback loop structure (sensor)? Flight Path Angle??
It is not directly measureable so vertical gyro and angle of attack sensor are used.

Summary For each Hold autopilot there are two important
questions: Which type of control device? Which type of feedback? loop structure? sensors?
Keep controller as simple as possible Proportional only (if acceptable) PD, PI, Lead/Lag, etc…
The closed loop system must comply with the airworthiness requirements

Summary Take into account the inner loop, when constructing the
outer loop. Keep in mind the possible effects on the closed loop
system of: Servo break frequency Flight condition (airspeed, altitude) etc...
