Abstract
The system includes a rudder bar configured to be able to be actuated by a pilot of the aircraft, a unit for automatically detecting a position value corresponding to a position of the rudder bar, an auxiliary unit for generating a trim value, a computation unit configured to generate a control value as a function of the position value of the rudder bar and of the trim value. The computation unit is configured to generate the control value according to a nonlinear kinematic relative to the position value of the rudder bar.
