How Garmin’s GFC 600H Flight Control System Makes Flying a Helicopter a lot Easier - AIN

Garmin’s new GFC 600H helicopter flight control system has been certified and is ready for installation in customer helicopters, initially the Airbus AS350 B2/B3. The company has been giving pilots demonstrations of the system’s features in its Airbus AS350 AStar.
The GFC 600H is available in a two-axis or three-axis configuration and it is a “fly-through” flight control system, which means that it is similar to stability augmentation system-type helicopter autopilots in that it maintains a stable state that frees the pilot to perform other tasks and not have to concentrate on maintaining the helicopter’s attitude all the time. Jack Loflin, Garmin’s engineering flight-test team lead, uses the analogy of a fixed-wing airplane’s inherent stability to describe how fly-through stability works.

In future I will buy the helicopter, who is with me??

[@waynep343]

i wonder how it would handle the tight high speed orbits with a 40 or 50 degree nose down angle that LAPD puts their copters thru..

Recently moved to LA from houston. Was in shock at how much different the “ghetto birds” as I keep hearing them called are flown sooooo much more aggressively than houston police would ever fly their copters. I see where GTA gets there references from. Lol

Waaaoo💗💗💗

[@bronco66r]

basically like piloting an RC drone yes?

[@robertrichard6107]

Is this the system required for high occupant S-76's?
