  • Electric command spoiler system
    Patent number: 4363098
    Abstract: An aircraft spoiler control system wherein each of a plurality of spoilers is driven by an electrically responsive actuator. Sense signals representative of the aircraft's control wheel rotation, speedbrake lever deflection, flap position and air/ground status are processed by logic which produces a corresponding control signal for each actuator. Fault detection circuitry switches in a back-up actuator control signal if a fault occurs in the active control circuit.
