In the event of a failed engine, an automatic takeoff thrust asymmetry compensation system ('ATACS') for an aircraft improves capabilities to reduce VMCG and deal with the potential side-effects simultaneously. The system commands selected control surfaces (which can be e.g., rudder and/or ailerons and/or spoilers or any combinations thereof) for a short period of time, improving the capability to reduce the VMCG without increasing the penalty on system failures or poor handling qualities.
