I know this is a dumb question but here it goes. If you design a servo actuator strong enough to withstand the maximum force, would it then be logical to assume the other end of the force fails. Put another way, can the servo actuator be strong enough to withstand the maximum force from the blade but the result of such a strong actuator is that the pilot is allowed to put enough force into the controls such that the blade can fail, snap off and scatter but the servo actuator withstood the force? I understand a pilot can apply inputs into a robinson or a 500 which can result in catastrophic failure but in the larger hydraulic aircraft, where should the balance be? The control acutator, the part it is controlling, or the pilot?
