RE: [RCSE] Wingeron plane w/ add-on mixer

[Scobie Puchtler or Sarah Felstiner]

I'm not familiar with this particular model, but I've flown and designed both wingeron and pitcheron slopers. If it's a wingeron plane where the wings act like ailerons, and there is still a separate elevator in back, you don't need a mixer at all. If it's a pitcheron plane where the wings must act like ailerons AND relative elevator all at once (the tail is usually fully fixed-no controls- on a pitcheron plane), then you DO need mix capacity. An ohmark mixer will probably do the trick, though it would be nicer to have independent relative travel control over the elevator and aileron functions of the mix.   Lift, Scobie in Seattle. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Chiu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2001 8:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] Wingeron plane w/ add-on mixer I was wondering if I can use an aftermarket electronic mixer (like the one from Ohmark) for use in a Wigeron plane like the CR Turbo ST?  Or is the mixer only for V-tails and flying wings?  I've never flown one of these wingeron planes so I'm a little confused, but it would seem that the control surfaces would work the same in principal as a V-tail or flying wing.    Thanks Peter
