Abstract

See full text

A series of heated control sticks for rotorcrafts, tiltrotors, and helicopters. The heated collective and cyclic sticks feature several heater assemblies to provide localized heating for pilots and co-pilots. The heater assemblies are formed from several layers of fabrics and resistive materials designed to generate heat while current is provided to conductive materials in the resistive material. A controller provides individualized control for users to adjust the temperature of various zones associated with either the collective stick or the cyclic stick. The heater assemblies can be installed entirely external to the stick like in a retrofit or partially internally.
