In order to suppress induction of precession when the rotor (24, 26) of a helicopter is tilted relative to a fuselage (31), the tilt trajectory is supplemented by transverse components. The helicopter is of the type with a bendable, actuated joint (34) between the rotor and a fuselage. A controller (2) receives an input signal (4) from a steering device (1) and transforms this input signal in an output signal (7) for an actuating system (3) for movement in the joint. The controller calculates on the basis of the input signal an estimation for further input signals, and adds a transverse component to the input trajectory before sending the output trajectory (11).
