Zusammenfassung:Automatic flight control actuator systems are provided. In one example, the system includes a pilot input linkage that receives an input and a flight surface output linkage adapted to control a flight surface. The system also includes a strain wave gear including a flex spline coupled to one of the pilot input linkage and the flight surface output linkage. The strain wave gear further includes a circular spline coupled to the other of the flight surface output linkage and the pilot input linkage, and coupled to the flex spline such that the input from the pilot input linkage is transferred to the flight surface output linkage via the strain wave gear.
