1. **Overhead Panel:** [Overhead Panel](/miltech-simulations-ch47d/aircraft-and-systems/overview-cockpit/overhead-panel.md)
2. **Main Instrument Panel:** [Main Instrument Panel](/miltech-simulations-ch47d/aircraft-and-systems/overview-cockpit/main-instrument-panel.md)
3. **Center Console:** [Center Console](/miltech-simulations-ch47d/aircraft-and-systems/overview-cockpit/center-console.md)
4. **Cyclic:** It allows the pilot to tilt the rotor discs. By tilting the rotor discs, the pilot directs the helicopter's thrust, enabling forward, backward, lateral, and combined movement.
5. **Collective:** It controls the overall pitch angle of all the main rotor blades simultaneously. Increasing the collective pitch increases the lift generated by the rotor system, causing the helicopter to rise.
6. **Directional Pedals:** These pedals control the yaw (rotation around the vertical axis) of the helicopter. Pressing the left pedal increases the pitch of the aft rotor blades and reduces pitch on the forward rotor blades. Conversely, pressing the right pedal increases pitch on the forward rotor blades and decreases it on the aft rotor blades. This differential adjustment of blade pitch controls the torque balance and allows the pilot to turn the helicopter left or right.&#x20;
7. **Electronic Flight Bag:** [Electronic Flight Bag (EFB)](/miltech-simulations-ch47d/aircraft-and-systems/electronic-flight-bag-efb.md)
8. **Coilot Side Emergency Cockpit Door:** These doors are emergency use only,  and therefore once jettisoned they cannot be closed unless you restart the flight.&#x20;
9. **Pilot Side Emergency Cockpit Door:**  These doors are emergency use only,  and therefore once jettisoned they cannot be closed unless you restart the flight.&#x20;

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.miltechsimulations.com/miltech-simulations-ch47d/aircraft-and-systems/overview-cockpit.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
