    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to flight control of electric aircraft and other powered aerial vehicles. In one embodiment, an electrical system for an aircraft is disclosed, comprising: at least one processor configured to: receive pilot input indicating a commanded aircraft state, determine an aircraft thrust for achieving the commanded aircraft state, retrieve at least one propeller parameter associated with propeller speeds, wherein the propeller parameter is determined to reduce a structural vibratory response in the aircraft. The at least one processor is further configured to determine a respective command for each propeller of the aircraft to achieve the determined aircraft thrust based on the at least one propeller parameter and control each propeller of the aircraft based on the corresponding respective command.
