Adaptive flight control systems marked a significant leap in rotor system control. Utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, this technology continuously optimizes rotor performance in response to environmental factors and flight conditions. The system can compensate for mechanical wear, damage, or environmental challenges by automatically adjusting control inputs to maintain optimal performance. This has resulted in improved safety margins and reduced pilot workload, particularly in adverse weather or emergency situations.
