Bank Angle Hold In simplest form it is a wing leveler An Attitude Sensor, roll gyro, is used to sense deviation Bank Angle feedback gives positive stiffness in roll and
stabilize the spiral mode. If the aircraft is held at some other attitude other than
wing level, additional control systems must be used to control sideslip and pitch rate, so that a coordinated turning motion is produced.
This control system can provide the inner loop for other autopilots, e.g. to maintain Fixed Heading etc.

Summary For each Hold autopilot there are two important
questions: Which type of control device? Which type of feedback? loop structure? sensors?
Keep controller as simple as possible Proportional only (if acceptable) PD, PI, Lead/Lag, etc…
The closed loop system must comply with the airworthiness requirements

Summary Take into account the inner loop, when constructing the
outer loop. Keep in mind the possible effects on the closed loop
system of: Servo break frequency Flight condition (airspeed, altitude) etc...
