I’m not a C++ guy so you people that know tell me if this scenario is possible. A false main rotor overspeed signal causes both DECU’s to rapidly reduce power. N1 does not go below idle so both generators stay online. Would the AFCS decouple with an overspeed or would it try to maintain speed and/or altitude depending on which mode was engaged?
