FLY BY WIRE PRINCIPLE

The pilots use the side sticks
to fly the aircraft in pitch and
roll (and in yaw indirectly
through turn coordination).
Computers interpret the
pilot's inputs and move the
flight control surfaces to
follow their orders. However,
regardless of the pilot's
inputs, the computer
prevents: - excessive
maneuvers, - flight outside the
safe flight envelope. Autopilot
commands are given directly
to the computers

FLIGHT CONTROLS ARCHITECTURE

A computer arrangement permanently
controls and monitors the flight control
surfaces, it also records and stores
faults.
This arrangement includes:
- 2 Elevator Aileron Computers (ELAC)
for pitch and roll control,
- 3 Spoiler Elevator Computers (SEC)
for pitch and roll control,
- 2 Flight Augmentation Computers
(FAC) for yaw control,
- 2 Flight Control Data Concentrators
(FCDC) for indication and
maintenance tests,
- 2 Flight Management Guidance
Computer (FMGC) for autopilot
commands,
- 2 Slat Flap Control Computers (SFCC)
for slat and flap control.

MECHANICAL BACK-UP
The mechanical back-up
lets the aircraft be
controlled during a
temporary complete loss
of electrical power or
flight controls computers.
Longitudinal control is
achieved using the trim
wheels to control the
THS, as the elevators are
kept at zero deflection.
Lateral control is
achieved from the rudder
pedals. Hydraulic power
is still needed to operate
the surfaces of the THS
and the Rudder.

The slats and flaps are electrically controlled and hydraulically operated.
Two SFCCs ensure control and monitoring. Each computer has one slat
and one flap channel. The slat and flap systems are similar.

ACTUATORS
The Aileron surface
is powered by two
servo controls.
Each Spoiler surface
is powered by a
single servo control.
The Flaps and Slats
surfaces are
powered by their
dedicated PCU.

The Rudder
surface is
powered by 3
servo controls.
The THS is moved
by one actuator.
The Elevator
surface is
powered by two
servo controls.
