We had two hydraulic actuators on each rotor head. With those we could move the swath plate through 360 degrees.

Were you ever on a flight where the SAS was disabled. every input was way too late, so you wallowed all over the place.

The SAS cabinet, and all that was in there made the pilots day go a whole lot better.

Once a private replaced a couple of hydraulic lines in the cabinet. As the senior avioncs mech I was called in to program the SAS boxes because the aircraft was acting weird. I could not find out what was wrong. It turned out a couple of hydraulic lines were hooked up wrong. It took about a week to find out.
