The main development in this work is the study of the loss of performance in flight when an actuator failure occurs and there is a rapid identification and isolation of that failure, so the aircraft can finish the flight maneuver safely. Moreover, there is a differential because of the study of the implementation of a new type of actuator and how the overall performance is impacted by it's used.
