Abstract

A control circuitry includes a first filter configured to filter a gravity compensated longitudinal acceleration of an aircraft to generate a filtered gravity compensated longitudinal acceleration. The propulsor trim control circuitry also includes a second filter configured to generate a filtered speed of the aircraft based on a speed of the aircraft. The propulsor trim control circuitry includes intermediary circuitry configured to generate a filtered longitudinal control effector error based on the filtered gravity compensated longitudinal acceleration and the speed. The propulsor trim control circuitry also includes a third filter configured to generate a filtered longitudinal thrust effector command value based on a longitudinal thrust effector command value. The propulsor trim control circuitry further includes output circuitry configured to generate a predicted longitudinal thrust effector trim value for a target horizontal state based on the filtered longitudinal control effector error and the filtered longitudinal thrust effector command value.
