Pitch Engagement
ESP engages at 20° nose-up and 17° nose-down. Once ESP is engaged, it will apply
opposing force between 15° and 50° nose-up and between 12° and 50° nose-down.
Maximum opposing force is applied between 25° and 50° nose-up and between 22°
and 50° nose-down.
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.
There are no indications marking the pitch ESP engage and disengage limits in
these nose-up/nose-down conditions.
High Airspeed Protection
Exceeding Vmo or Mmo will result in ESP applying force to raise the nose of
the aircraft. When the high airspeed condition is remedied, ESP force is no longer
applied.
