Presumably this is the 'Koala' helo?
Anyone qualified on this, out there.
If so: should a FADEC failure leading to a runaway up, occur, can't it be controlled by selecting manual?

Again out of curiosity, if the pilot could enter and recover from auto, resulting in a diversion to land, why didn't he simply land in the first instance?

Not trying to point the finger...genuinely curious in the mechanics of the failure???
