Abstract
A control system for an aircraft, the aircraft comprising: two or more propulsors; two or more electric motors, each electric motor configured to drive a corresponding propulsor; a primary energy system comprising a rechargeable battery arranged to power the two or more electric motors; and a reserve energy system comprising two or more combustion engines and two or more generators arranged to power the two or more electric motors. The control system comprises: a user interface configured to output an attitude required to execute a given flight path. Following initiation of operation of the reserve energy system, the control system is arranged to receive an indication of the operational state of the reserve energy system; and control the user interface to output: a first attitude corresponding to a first flight path when the detected operational state of the reserve energy system is a first operational state; and a second attitude corresponding to a second flight path when the detected operational state of the reserve energy system is a second operational state, wherein the second attitude is different from the first attitude. The first operational state is a state in which all engines and generators are operational, and the second operational state is a state in which one of the engines and/or one of the generators is not operational. Between the initiation of operation and the detection of the operational state of the reserve energy system, the control system is configured to output, to the user interface, a precautionary attitude which can be maintained when the electric motors are powered by the reserve energy system alone if the reserve energy system is in the second operational state.
