Abstract: Rudder pedal and brake inceptor devices are described that utilize a straight-line mechanism and rotary joints to achieve straight line motion in a compact volume. The devices can include four or more bar linkages that translate forward motion of a pedal into a rotary motion of a common shaft, such that forward motion of one pedal causes the other pedal to retract while allowing for yaw motion control of the aircraft.
