A method for controlling a rotorcraft (101; 401; 501; 601), including receiving, by a fly-by-wire (FBW) system of the rotorcraft, a pilot input that initiates an automated descend-to-hover flight mode, scheduling, by the FBW system, a descend plane (405, 406; 506; 606) for bringing the rotorcraft to a hover, and autonomously descending and decelerating the rotorcraft (101; 401; 501; 601) according to the descend plane (405, 406; 506; 606) in response to determining that the rotorcraft has entered the automated descend-to-hover flight mode and until the rotorcraft reaches a hover or the rotorcraft (101; 401; 501; 601) exits the automated descend-to-hover flight mode.
