The performance benefits to be gained from relaxed static stability (RSS) are illustrated for M = 0.9 and M = 2.0 flight conditions. The longitudinal, directional, and lateral control system structure is developed. The effect of static margin, bandwidth, and canard-wing interaction on canard rate requirements is analyzed. Control and maneuver limiter functions are developed and implemented about all three axes; simulation results strikingly demonstrate the concomitant improvement in energy management and improved resistance to departure and spin.
