Abstract:
A system and method are provided for controlling aircraft flight control surfaces. The system may include at least three pilot sensor channels, each pilot sensor channel including a set of pilot sensor data. The system may also include at least three aircraft sensor channels, each aircraft sensor channel including a set of aircraft sensor data. The system may further include an actuator control component configured to synchronously receive and vote on the pilot sensor data and the aircraft sensor data, such that a voted output of the at least three pilot sensor channels is transmitted to a flight control computer and augmented before being transmitted to remote electronics units. The voted output of the at least three pilot sensor channels providing for the control of the aircraft surfaces coupled to the remote electronics units.
