METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING ROTOR SPEEDS OF ROTOR SYSTEMS

Abstract:

A method and system to control a rotor system includes providing a controller communicably coupled to the rotor system, and automatically changing a rotor speed of the rotor system from a first rotor speed in a first flight mode to a second rotor speed in a second flight mode over a time period using the controller in accordance with an acceleration-rate profile that varies over the time period.
