Fly-by-Wire Diagrams

Hi there,

I'm doing a project on the A330 and planning to explain the key differecnes between fly-by-wire and the older more conventional flight control systems.

This will involve using a 3D graphic model of the plane and transplanting the convenitonal system out and the fly-by-wire in to help visualise these differences. My problem is finding some good diagramtic references to use with this that exhibit the right amoutn of detail. I have looked at lots of Airbus manuals but the diagrams are understandably very complex and specific to particualr sub-systems rather the giving the 'overall picture' of the system. We're trying to come up with something representative that is simple enough to show an non aviaiton audience but still true to the overall layout and componentry of the system.

Does anyone know of any images/diagrams/info that might be of help? I've trawled the interent with little luck but I'm not in the aviation industry so probably haven't been to all the righ places.

Thanks!
