Abstract

See full text

Aircraft control surface operating systems and apparatuses, and associated methods of use. In one embodiment, an aircraft system includes an actuator operably coupled to a control surface in one-to-one correspondence. The actuator can include at least a first fluid port and a second fluid port. A first fluid circuit can be configured to provide pressurized working fluid from a fluid source to the first fluid port on the actuator to retract the actuator. A second fluid circuit can be configured to similarly provide pressurized working fluid from the fluid source to the second fluid port on the actuator to extend the actuator. The aircraft system can further include an accumulator configured to store pressurized working fluid for actuator operation in the event of a pressure drop in the fluid source.
