I think Lu confused the mechanical control linkages with the control servos.
No, I made the statement about the control system, which in your post you (possibly) alluded to the control system as being complex. That is what I assumed you were saying. My statement was that the only control linkage was between the collective and cyclic sticks to the respective VDTs as well as connecting the control sticks and from there on it was fly-by-wire. I also believe that the CH-47 would be vastly improved if it had the V-22 control system as opposed to the extremely complex control system presently installed.
