PITCH ENGAGEMENT

ESP pitch engagement is configurable between 10º and 25º nose-up and between
5º and 25º nose-down. Once engaged, the torque applied by ESP is at its maximum
when pitch is 5º more than the configured nose-up and nose-down pitch limits, and
tapers to the minimum applied torque when pitch is 5º less than the configured nose-
up and nose-down pitch limits. When beyond 5º of the configured pitch limit, the
maximum torque is held until the aircraft returns inside the protected envelope.
The opposing force increases or decreases depending on the pitch angle and the
direction of pitch travel. This force is intended to encourage movement in the pitch axis
in the direction of the normal pitch attitude range for the aircraft.
The presence of yellow chevrons indicate that ESP is engaged in these nose-up/
nose-down conditions.
