Embodiments of the invention relate to a flight control system for controlling an aircraft in flight having a backup control system integrated into an active control stick. The actuated control stick may include a processing unit that includes independent and separate hardware and/or software dedicated to the primary control system and the backup control system. For the primary control system, the processing unit may receive a sensed primary control stick signal and communicate with a primary processor, which may be configured to generate a primary control signal. For the backup control system, the processing unit may receive a sensed backup control stick signal and generate a backup control signal. The processing unit may also generate tactile signal for use by the actuated control stick to adjust the feel of a pilot's control stick.

L'invention concerne, dans des modes de réalisation, un système de commande de vol permettant de commander un avion en plein vol, ledit système comprenant un système de commande de secours intégré dans un manche de commande activé. Le manche de commande activé peut comprendre une unité de traitement avec un matériel et/ou un logiciel indépendants et séparés spécifiques au système de commande principal et au système de commande de secours. Pour le système de commande principal, l'unité de traitement peut recevoir un signal détecté du manche de commande principal et communiquer avec un processeur principal, pouvant être conçu pour générer un signal de commande principal. Pour le système de commande de secours, l'unité de traitement peut recevoir un signal détecté du manche de commande de secours et générer un signal de commande de secours. L'unité de traitement peut également générer un signal tactile utilisé par le manche de commande activé permettant le réglage tactile du manche de commande d'un pilote.
