I'm not him (and I'm also not a pilot or aircraft designer), but AFAIK there's also the elevator trim, which uses a separate mechanism and could be used to shift the range of the control authority.
- WalterBright 3y agoThere is a movement limiter on the elevators, that restricts the travel at higher speeds. Going full elevator at high speed will rip the tail off. This is an automatic range limiter, not under pilot control. There is also a stabilizer trim system, which pivots the entire horizontal stabilizer, elevators and all. It's all rather complicated.
