Q

What are the failsafe parameters of the primary flight control surfaces?

A

Control of aircraft can be kept if:

1) A component does not move freely or is disconnected
2) Loss of electrical power
3) Loss of hyd sys press in up to 2/3 systems
4) Shutdown of engine

Q

How does the CRJ incorporate artificial feel?

A

Uses artificial feel and centering units incorporated into each primary flight control system.

The artificial feel and centering units are cam follower spring devices which increase the control feel resistance.

16
Q

Where are the positions of the primary and secondary flight control surfaces shown in terms of displays?

A

EICAS (both prim and sec displays)

17
Q

How is Aileron Roll Control achieved on the crj?

A

Controlled by 2 Hyd Operated ailerons

2 PCU’s per aileron connected to a common interconnecting input linkage

An aileron position transmitter (RVDT) will send an electrical signal to the EICAS

18
Q

How are the handwheels connected together?

A

Linked by a cable system and an interconnecting torque tube that incoroporates a roll disconnect mechanism in case of a jammed circuit

19
Q

How is aileron trim achieved?

A

Using an electronically driven actuator linked to the aft quadrants by a push/pull-Rod/Bellcrank system

20
Q

How is control surface flutter prevented?

A

A flutter dampener is installed on each aileron in the event of a loss of hyd power to the aileron PCU’s during flight. Acts like a gust lock on the ground.

21
Q

What does a Tension Regulator do?

A

Transmits mechanical input from the wing cable circuit to the PCU connecting arm assembly. The regulator adjusts to maintain a constant tension on the wing control cable circuit to allow for wing flexing and temperature changes.

22
Q

What is the purpose of Spoilers?

A

Roll assist, ground lift dumping, speedbraking

23
Q

How are spoilers powered?

A

By PCU’s through the SECU

24
Q

Where does the SECU receive input signals from for Roll assist?

A

Roll Control Input Models (RCIM’s) in the aileron control cable when the pilot rotates its handwheel. (In this case the RCIM is an RVDT (Rotary Variable Differential Transducer)

25
Q

Where is the flight spoiler control level located?

A

Located on the center instrument panel in the flight deck

26
Q

How do the spoilers deploy on landing?

A

SECU recieves a signal from the spoiler/thrust reverser panel AND a WOW signal AND if the main wheels are spinning fast enough AND the thrust reversers are retracted, all spoilers deploy

27
Q

How is the rudder powered?

A

Physically moved by three PCU’s. Each PCU is powered by One of Three independent Hydraulic Systems. For failsafe redundancy.
