Calculation :
The difference between actual attitude and desired attitude [ degrees ] generates a given gimball vector required to correct the yaw
This is – a quite simple if X , then Y calculation
Outputs :
New gimbal angle [ actuators ]
New thrust [ throttle positions ]

bigbrain, if you're talking about a plane in level flight, then YES, you have all three forces in effect. If you're talking about a craft in VERTICAL flight then you only have TWO forces in effect...

However, since you're CLIMBING on the vertical axis, you're just going to spin 360 degrees until you stop it. A torque roll relies on elevators and rudder to perform. A simple aileron turn with no elevator or rudder involvement is going to simply spin you around

Look at this image
NASA buffoons are totally stupid: in this image also helicopter is faked.
MAIN BLADES ARE TOTALLY STILL.

To understand completely which forces affect LEM, do this simple thing:
take a coke can and try to keep it vertical on your finger tip.
It will try to fall off in all directions at 360 degrees, like LEM thrusted from the bottom.
NASA buffoons have done another nonsense.
Why do these advices spray also up and down?

If there were something wrong with the design, why has no other engineer or scientist from anywhere else in the world pointed it out? Why are you the only one here who seems to have an issue with the LM, but no one else? Perhaps (and you are) in error.

The "Huskie" was used primarily for crash rescue and aircraft fire-fighting. It was in use with the U.S. Navy when delivery of the H-43As to the USAF Tactical Air Command began in November 1958. Delivery of the -B series began in June 1959. In mid-1962, the USAF changed the H-43 designation to HH-43 to reflect the aircraft's rescue role. The final USAF version was the HH-43F with engine modifications for improved performance.
