Mechanical device eliminates need for redundant fly-by-wire subsystems. Main components are two linkages. One connected to control column in conventional, reversible control system. Other slides inside first linkage and connected to pilot's control wheel. In addition to aircraft applications, design used in control systems in which computer control desirable but safety backup systems required; for example, in boat rudders, engine controls in boats and automobiles, and controls in construction equipment.
