← TechnologyWhich mechanism prevents uncontrolled aircraft yaw arising from an engine failure during flight?
A)Adverse yaw compensation
B)Differential thrust vectoring
C)Auto-rudder control system✓
D)Yaw damper augmentation
💡 Explanation
The auto-rudder control system detects engine failure and automatically applies rudder to counteract the asymmetric thrust; because it uses differential aerodynamic forces to maintain directional control, therefore reducing uncontrolled yaw rather than relying solely on pilot input or damping.
