1. A method comprising: obtaining at least one measurement of blade bending from a blade mounted sensor associated with at least one blade of at least one rotor of an aircraft;processing, by a device comprising a processor, the at least one measurement to obtain moment data;obtaining data from an inertial measurement unit (IMU), wherein the data obtained from the IMU pertains to at least one of a pitch of the aircraft and an angular rate; andprocessing, by the device, the moment data and the data from the IMU to generate a command configured to stabilize the aircraft, wherein the command is based on a reference input, and wherein the reference input is based on at least one input provided by a pilot of the aircraft. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one measurement comprises a plurality of measurements. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein a first of the plurality of measurements is associated with a first blade, and wherein a second of the plurality of measurements is associated with a second blade. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the aircraft comprises a plurality of rotors, and wherein the first blade is associated with a first rotor, and wherein the second blade is associated with a second rotor. 5. The method of claim 2, wherein the plurality of measurements are averaged to obtain the moment data. 6. An apparatus for use in a rotorcraft having at least one rotor with blades, the apparatus comprising: at least one processor; andmemory having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to: obtain blade bending measurements through at least one sensor mounted to at least one of the blades;process the measurements to obtain moment data;obtain data from an inertial measurement unit (IMU), wherein the data obtained from the IMU pertains to at least one of a pitch of the rotorcraft and an angular rate; andprocess the moment data and the data from the IMU to generate a command configured to stabilize the rotorcraft, wherein the command is based on a reference input, and wherein the reference input is based on at least one input provided by a pilot of the rotorcraft. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein a first of the measurements is associated with a first blade, and wherein a second of the measurements is associated with a second blade. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the rotorcraft comprises a plurality of rotors, and wherein the first blade is associated with a first rotor, and wherein the second blade is associated with a second rotor. 9. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the measurements are averaged to obtain the moment data.
