Actuator systems and methods for controlling aerodynamic control surfaces of aircraft including a first actuator (226) receiving a first input and a first linear translation element (232) that moves based thereon, the first linear translation element operably connected to a first portion of the control surface. A first sensor assembly (238) is disposed relative to the first actuator that generates an output based on a displacement of the first translation element. A second actuator (228) receives a second input and a second linear translation element (236) moves based on the second input, the second linear translation element operably connected to a second portion of the control surface. A second sensor assembly (240) is disposed relative to the second actuator that generates a second sensor output based on a displacement of the second translation element. A controller (218) generates the inputs and receives the sensor outputs to determine if an error condition exists for the system.
