A roll control system (201) controls roll control surfaces (119) of an aircraft (101) that are capable of causing the aircraft (101) to perform a roll maneuver by respectively deflecting in upward and downward directions. The roll control system (201) includes deflection limiter units (207a, 207b) for respectively limiting angles of deflection of the roll control surfaces (119), and further includes de flection rate limiter units (209a, 209b) for respectively limiting rates of deflection of the roll control surfaces (119). The deflection limiter unit (207a, 207b) limits the roll control surfaces (119) to deflection distances and deflection rates based at least in part on the deflection direction of the roll control surfaces (119). For a given set of flight conditions, such as airspeed, if a roll control surface (119) is deflecting upwardly, it is less limited by the roll control system (201) in terms of deflection distance and deflection rate than if the roll control surface (119) is deflecting downwardly.
