    Abstract: A jam-tolerant dual-redundant differential-summing actuator (20) includes a first driver (23) adapted to be rotated about a first axis (x1-x1) at a first surface speed; a second driver (26) adapted to be rotated about a second axis (x1-x1) at a second surface speed; a movable output member (21); and a linkage (24, 28, 31, 32, 33, 34, 40) connecting the first and second drivers to the output members such that the output member will be moved at a velocity that is substantially proportional to the average surface speed of the drivers.
