This article deals with design and realisation of a canard foreplane control system for an aeroelastic demonstrator, suitable for wind tunnel testing. Hardware and software will be described as the methodology adopted to design, implement and realise the software. Specific attention is devoted to PID application, tuning and fuselage vibration control implementation. Results of preliminary test and simulations are presented and show realistic system effectiveness in damping fuselage bending and torsion. This work describes all the activity performed at Politecnico di Milano before wind tunnel testing at VZLU, Prague, as part of Active Aeroelastic Aircraft Structures (3AS) EU project.
