The Kinematics figure shows that a 5°/sec side-stick demand in Config Full results in aileron and spoiler deflection of approximately 11.5° and 3° respectively. The same side-stick demand in Config 3 results in deflections of 18° and 8° respectively. Clearly the aircraft is more sensitive to control inputs in Config 3 than in Config FULL
Interesting. I guess they want to ensure we have maximum roll authority in altn/direct law.
