A control system (10) for controlling the pitch of a propeller (50), the system comprising a propeller shaft (60), a blade swivel device (20) having a rotary control element (22) suitable for placing the blades (52) in an angular position corresponding to a desired propeller pitch, and a transmission (12) presenting an outlet member coupled in rotation with the rotary control element (22) of the blade swivel device (20).

The transmission (12) includes a variable speed drive (70) having drive, control, and outlet rotors that are coupled in rotation respectively with the propeller shaft (60), with a control member, and with the outlet member of the transmission.

By means of the variable speed drive (70), the speed of rotation of the outlet member of the transmission is a predetermined function of the speeds of rotation not only of the propeller shaft, but also of the control member.
