  • Method of managing a steering command for a steerable portion of aircraft landing gear
    Patent number: 9169002
    Abstract: A method of managing a steering command for a steerable portion 3 of nose landing gear 2 of an aircraft 1. The method implements servo-control to servo-control of a steering actuator 6 to an angle position setpoint ?set for the steerable portion 3. The servo-control includes calculating an error ? by subtracting a reference angle ?est from the angle position setpoint ?set. The reference angle ?est is an angle determined by calculation as a function of a longitudinal speed Vlong and a yaw rate ? of the aircraft 1.
