A method of control used by some modern aircraft where input from the control column, aircraft control surfaces, and other data, such as static and dynamic pressure and angle of attack, are fed into a computer. These data are inputs for the movement of aircraft control surfaces and are conveyed to the hydroboosters by electrical signals.
