An aircraft includes an airframe having an empennage, a counter rotating, coaxial main rotor assembly located at the airframe including an upper rotor assembly and a lower rotor assembly, and a translational thrust system positioned at the empennage and providing translational thrust to the airframe. At least two control surfaces located at the empennage are independently operable via commands from one or more flight control computers. A method of operating an aircraft includes transmitting a first signal from one or more flight control computers to a first control surface located at a first lateral side of a translational thrust system, and actuating the first control surface to a first position via the first signal. A second signal is transmitted to a second control surface located at a second lateral side opposite the first lateral side, and the second control surface is actuated to a second position via the second signal
