Abstract

The invention relates to a control system and to a method of operating such a control system, particularly to a control system for pilot command inputs for a helicopter, with a mechanical input signal (2), at least one electric position sensor (21, 21′) for said input signal (2), at least one electric power supply (25, 25′) and at least one controllable, electromechanical actuator (27, 27′) fed by the at least one electric power supply (25, 25′) and controlled by the at least one electric position sensor (21, 21′). The mechanical input signal (2) is applied mechanically to the at least one controllable electromechanical actuator (27, 27′).
