<p>A method of controlling an aircraft 80 comprising at least one propeller system 20 having a plurality of rigidly mounted propeller blades 32, the pitch of the blades 32 being collectively adjustable to generate a thrust, and cyclically adjustable to generate a moment. The combination of the thrust and moment may be used to generate a bending moment about an axis, or axes, X, Y, Z of the aircraft 80. The method may use two propeller systems 20 on an aircraft 80 to generate a trust, moment and/or bending moment(s). Details of the cyclic and collective blade pitch adjustment mechanisms are also disclosed.</p> |
