Spring detent for over-ridable interconnect

A redundant mechanical control system, comprising:

• a first actuating portion;
• a second actuating portion;
• a break-away interconnect;
• and
• a jam override subsystem comprising a detent apparatus to provide an axial force, the first actuating portion and the second actuating portion being mechanically linked via the break-away interconnect until an overriding force is received by the jam override system, the overriding force being larger than the axial force of the detent apparatus, the detent apparatus comprises a plurality of assemblies, each assembly of the plurality of assemblies including a lock-ball, a spring, a plunger, and a lock-ball seat, each assembly of the plurality of assemblies of the detent apparatus is located around a first circumference of an inner tube of the break-away interconnect, wherein the overriding force is an extension force or a compression force applied to an end of the break-away interconnect, wherein the detent apparatus further comprises a torsion spring, the torsion spring is configured to rotate the inner tube when a breakout condition has occurred with the detent apparatus as a result of the overriding force.
