As Bob said the outboard flaperon is mechanically connected so in the case that the electrical system failed there would still be aileron control. Also as Bob said each of the servos is actually 2 servos working together so the servos have dual redundancy and the flight computer (which controls the servos) has triple redundancy. Thus the chances of the FBW system failing are low, and the consequences are not excessively dangerous.
