Subject: [RCSE] aileron differential, which way?
Should there be more up or down throw, and why?
From what I remember, more up is required. And the reason is to prevent
adverse yaw. More throw on the up aileron causes more drag and helps the
plane yaw in
Yes, you typically want more up than down aileron throw. This is to balance
the drag of each aileron and minimize yaw.
However, how much is needed varies with the current Cl of the wing.
Aerobatic planes operate over a wide range of Cl including inverted so they
don't use it.
The best you can
will yield a yawing
effect.
Interestingly enough, the reverse is true of a v-tail. Any ideas why anyone?
Cheers,
Adam
