Abstract
A system for controlling landing gear subsystems may comprise a controller and a first motor drive unit in operable communication with the controller. A first electric motor and a second electric motor may be in operable communication with the first motor drive unit. A second motor drive unit may be in operable communication with the controller. A third electric motor and a fourth electric motor may be in operable communication with the second motor drive unit. An AC/DC converter may be electrically coupled to the first drive unit and the second motor drive unit.
