Abstract: A wing mounting, comprising: ?a base (11); ?a wing bracket (25) pivotally mounted to the base, configured to rotate relative to the base within an operational angular range; and ?at least one biasing element configured to bias the wing bracket away from the boundaries of the operational angular range, wherein the at least one biasing element (120) is configured to bias the wing bracket within a biasing range adjacent the respective boundaries of the operational angular range, but substantially not to bias the wing bracket within an inner angular range including the middle of the operational angular range.

Abstract: A flight control system (20) comprising: • at least one drive unit (4); • at least one wing (5) operatively connected to the at least one drive unit; and • a controller (21) configured to: • send a control signal to the at least one drive unit to operate the at least one drive unit through a demanded motion; • receive a feedback signal indicative of the actual motion of the at least one drive unit; and • compare the actual motion to the demanded motion to determine a motion error of the at least one drive unit.
