Roulis,

The C-star law does not depend on airspeed information. From Favre, C.(1994) 'Fly-by-wire for commercial aircraft: the Airbus experience', International Journal of Control, 59: 1, 139 — 157 :


The load factor comes from an accelerometer and the pitch rate from a gyro. I don't know where these are located, but my guess is in the ADIRU's under the cockpit floor.
