An aircraft flight control surface actuation system includes a plurality of electric motors-driven flap actuators, and a plurality of electric motor-driven slat actuators. The motor-driven actuators receive activation signals from flap and slat actuator controllers and is, in response to the activation signals, move the flaps and slats between stowed and a deployed positions. The flap and slat actuator controllers each include a plurality of independent actuator control channels that independently supply the activation signals to the motor-driven actuators.
