Abstract
Techniques for controlling the operation of a component of an aircraft, such as an inverter used to provide electric energy to the aircraft's motor or an actuator used to control positioning of a control surface (e.g., an aileron, an elevator, a rudder, and/or the like) of the aircraft. In example embodiments, a command processor receives a first command pilot signal generated by a first flight controller component from the first flight controller component. The command processor receives a second command pilot signal generated by a second flight controller component from another command processor. The command processor may determine a consolidated command signal based on the two command signals. The command processor may control the operation of the component of the aircraft based on the consolidated command signal.
