This paper presents a method of combing flexible trailing edge morphing and asymmetric variable sweep angle morphing in one aircraft. Simulation results show that it can provide better control ability in different flight conditions. The control laws of each redundant control surface are designed under the framework of Main-Supervisory controller by using the Kane’s and Backstepping methods.
