Abstract: A flight control system for an aircraft includes a flight control computer operatively interconnected with a main rotor system and a translational thrust system of the aircraft. A selectively enabled integrated target and flight control system arranged in communication with the flight control computer. The integrated target flight and control system is configured to control pitch attitude and heading of the aircraft. When the integrated target and flight control system is enabled, at least partial operation of the aircraft is controlled in response to a pilot input via the flight control computer.

Abstract: A method for determining a center-of-gravity of an aircraft in three dimensions includes determining a first center-of-gravity location for an aircraft in a first plane defined by a first axis and a second axis. The method includes positioning the aircraft in a tilted position by rotating the aircraft and determining a second center-of-gravity location for the aircraft in the first plane in the tilted position. The method includes comparing the first center-of-gravity location to the second center-of-gravity location to determine a component of the first center-of-gravity location along a third axis defined out-of-plane from the first plane to determine a three-dimensional center-of-gravity of the aircraft.

Abstract: A retractable landing gear system for a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft includes a rotational strut rotatably coupled to a fuselage of the VTOL aircraft. The rotational strut includes a first end, a second end, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween. A drag strut includes a first end portion pivotally connected to the rotational strut and a second end portion. A locking link includes a first end section pivotally connected relative to the fuselage, a second end section pivotally connected to the drag strut and an intermediate section having a hinge element. A retraction system is operatively connected to the rotational strut and the locking link. The retraction system is operable to pivot the drag strut about a first axis and rotate the rotational strut about a second axis that is distinct from the first axis.
