I think all the Sikorsky FBW uses a normal collective and a unique trim sidearm controller. The RAH66 didn't have pedals but everything else has.

I'd flown in the back of the Shadow a few times as a young engineer, including once when my old man was up front for a demo. It was a good aircraft but the technology definitely moved ahead since those days.

At Schweizer we also built a Shadow style FBW 333. We didn't get to do a lot with it but it was a fun project.
