A central control entity controls all actuators of a chassis control system of a motor vehicle. To select a combination of actuator operations best suited for influencing the handling of the motor vehicle, the effect of a change of settings of motor vehicle actuators on the handling is predicted by an observer device configured to receive at least one sensor signal from a sensor via a signal input and, depending on the sensor signal, to determine at least one estimated value for a slip resistance of the motor vehicle. The controller is configured by operating the controller in a test motor vehicle that has a sensor for a measured variable, for which the observer device determines an estimated value. The estimated values from the controller are then compared with corresponding measured values.

A controller for a motor vehicle, comprising
A motor vehicle comprising a controller with an observer device having a signal input receiving at least one sensor signal from a sensor of the motor vehicle, said observer device configured to determine depending on the at least one sensor signal at least one estimated value of a tire slip resistance and an estimated value of a slip angle of the motor vehicle of the motor vehicle, and a signal output supplying the at least one determined estimated value and the estimated value of the slip angle.
A method of configuring a controller operated in a test motor vehicle, wherein the controller comprises an observer device receiving at least one sensor signal from a sensor of the test motor vehicle, the method comprising:
