Stability and safety are essential for your helicopter missions. We offer a wide range of flight control systems for helicopters, including actuators for small, medium and large applications or the civil, commercial and military markets.

Our main and tail rotor actuators incorporate advanced features, including the latest developments in servo-valves, solenoid valves, spool valves and detection devices including anti-jamming on the spool valve.

Our fly-by-wire technology was developed for the helicopter market, with the NH90 helicopter being the first industrial rotorcraft to fly in full fly-by-wire mode with Goodrich main rotor actuators onboard. It is a technical innovation that eliminates the need for mechanical links between the pilot controls and actuators, reducing pilot workload. Our fly-by-wire systems offer increased maneuverability of the aircraft.
