- cptskippy 7y agoAre you saying the development of fly-by-wire in the helicopter is ingenious or the implementation of the fly-by-wire system? If it's later I'm left wondering what's ingenious about it.
- xnyan 7y agoThe engine available was less powerful that what is used in the UH-60, so a fly-by-wire system was devised to drop weight from the aircraft. That's clever enough of a solution I think.
