Mitigating pitch and heave in a heavy-duty vehicle. A heavy-duty vehicle includes a movable arm, an operator control, an inertial measurement device, and a controller. The operator control directs movement of the movable arm. The inertial measurement device measures a pitch motion and a heave motion of the heavy-duty vehicle. The controller is coupled to the operator control unit and the inertial measurement device, and mitigates pitch motion and heave motion by adjusting a movement of the movable arm. The inertial measurement device detects a motion in one of a first direction and a second direction and determines a direction of movement of the arm (e.g., in one of a third direction and a fourth direction). The controller increases the speed of motion of the arm when the motion is in the first direction and the movement is in the third direction or when the motion is in the second direction and the movement is in the fourth direction.
