An actuation system for controlling flight control members of a vehicle. Each flight control member is controlled by two or more linear hydraulic actuators. Synchronization members extend between the hydraulic actuators on the same flight control members to synchronize the movements of the hydraulic actuators for consistent movement across the length of the flight control members. Brakes can maintain the positions of the synchronization members and thus the flight control members. Motors can provide for moving the synchronization members to control the positioning of the hydraulic actuators and flight control members.
