Our fly-by-wire pedal solutions use RVDTs, LVDTs, potentiometers and resolvers to capture motion and interface with the flight control computer. All electrical components used are mature components - logging flying hours for more than 20 years. Also, we participate on the SAE A6 committee for ARP 6252 - "Rudder and Brake Pedal Unit General Requirements for Fly by Wire Transport and Business Aircraft" - and have a comprehensive knowledge of certification requirements. All of this adds up to CROUZET having the technology, experience and capability to provide a more optimized unit in terms of system weight, cost, aircraft integration, pilot acceptance, reliability and maintainability.
We are accustomed to working with both aircraft and system manufacturers in a collaborative environment. When coupled with our extensive and capable on-site test facility, CROUZET is able to support all FbW systems requirements, from development to certification, within the program schedule.
