Market Overview:
The global rotorcraft flight control system market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for rotorcrafts in commercial and military applications. Additionally, the increasing adoption of fly-by-wire technology in rotorcrafts is also contributing to the growth of this market. The cyclic pitch control segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global rotorcraft flight control system market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its ability to change blade pitch angle and optimize aircraft performance.
Product Definition:
The rotorcraft flight control system is a mechanism that allows the pilot to guide and maneuver the aircraft. It consists of a series of interconnected parts that allow the pilot to adjust the aircraft's attitude, altitude, and speed. The flight control system is important because it enables the pilot to safely fly the aircraft.
Cyclic Pitch Control:
Cyclic pitch control is a flight control system that maintains the bank angle of a helicopter in hover by maintaining the relationship between cyclic stick movement and rotational speed. It helps to maintain stability in hover and provides yawing motion through input from pedals or controls.
Helicopters with cyclic pitch control have their main rotor driven by one or more driveshafts connected to a single collective pitch lever, which may be mounted on the pilot's left side.
Tail Rotor Control:
Tail rotor control is a flight control system that helps the pilot to maintain orientation of the aircraft with reference to its longitudinal axis during hover, rotation, and maneuvering. It also provides stability in yaw and pitch directions. The system consists of two main components namely; Hydraulic Control System (HCS) and Servo Control System (SCS).
The SCS is responsible for maintaining directional stability while the HCS maintains vertical stabilization.
Application Insights:
OEMs held the largest market share of over 80% in 2017. The rotorcraft OEMs including Augusta Westland, Sikorski, and Textron Aviation are investing significantly in R&D to develop advanced flight control systems for their helicopters. These systems not only enhance the performance but also reduce the maintenance cost and time of these helicopters.
The aftermarket segment is expected to expand at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increased product demand as retrofit kits for existing rotary aircraft or new build installations on commercial airliners or military fixed-winged aircrafts.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of prominent rotorcraft manufacturers such as Sikorsky Aircraft, Lockheed Martin Corporation and Boeing. These companies are engaged in developing advanced rotorcraft with enhanced safety features for various applications including military, regional and general aviation. Moreover, increasing demand for new-generation helicopters is expected to drive the regional market over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over a projected period owing to rising demand from countries such as India.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for rotorcrafts for civilian and military applications
- Growing popularity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones
- Proliferation of advanced flight control systems in rotorcrafts
- Technological advancements in flight control systems
- Rising demand for helicopters and other rotorcrafts in developing countries
