    Abstract: A system including a set of computation modules configured to be utilized for computation of gains of at least one piloting law relative to at least one piloting axis of the aircraft and a data capture unit for capturing in at least one computation unit associated with a given piloting axis of the aircraft first values illustrating aerodynamic coefficients of the aircraft and second values defining delay and filter characteristics of the control chain relative to the given piloting axis, the computation unit being configured to compute the gains of the piloting law utilizing at least a part of the set of computation modules and the computation unit computing inputs intended for at least one actuator of a control surface adapted to control the aircraft relative to the given piloting axis in accordance with a corresponding current control value.

    Abstract: A system for controlling aircraft flight control surfaces implements a method including: obtaining a control law for the flight control surfaces as a function of flight controls of the aircraft; obtaining measurements of ground speed, true speed, roll angle, pitch angle, angle of attack, sideslip angle and slope angle; performing an estimation of the wind in three dimensions using the measurements obtained; performing an adjustment of the control law for the flight control surfaces, to counter the estimated wind effect and to obtain an adjusted control law for the flight control surfaces, by adding, to the control law, a term for wind compensation comprising a term proportional to the derivative of the wind estimation; and controlling the aircraft by applying the adjusted control law. Thus, the impact of the wind on the aircraft is reduced by digital processing and automatic adjustment of the control of the flight control surfaces.
