Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods and system for controlling the operation of a fly-by-wire aircraft. One or more yaw commands are received from an operator control, and one or more actual induced rolls rates are determined based on the yaw commands. A yaw signal and a roll-countering command are sent to flight control components of the aircraft, the yaw signal to cause a yaw motion in the aircraft, and the roll-countering command to counter the actual induced rolls. A standardized roll rate command is determined based on the yaw command, and the standardized roll rate command is sent to the flight control components to cause a roll motion in the aircraft.
