The yaw damper system acts on:
The yaw damper system dampens the yaw rate of the aircraft by acting only on the rudder. The motion of the aircraft about the yaw axis will induce not only yaw but also roll. This motion called Dutch roll will be stopped only by dampening the yaw rate fluctuations by acting on the rudder.
The yaw damper system uses the angular rate signal about the yaw axis to control the rudder. A yaw damper indicator in the cockpit supplies the flight crew with the yaw damper action on the rudder. A computer sends a motion order to the rudder if the yaw rate of the aircraft is not equal to zero. In other words, it is moving the rudder without moving the rudder pedals. It is designed to reduce the roll ratio in the Dutch roll oscillations. The yaw damper system is operative during both manual, and automatic flight.
