The trim surface operates in the opposite direction to the trimmed surface and takes area away from it. ------------------------------------------------------------- ---- ^^^ ^ Explain please? What area stuff? Cheers that area stuff. ...which shows a total lack of aerodynamic understanding. Still don't know what you're talking about! Most of that thread has spooled off my main server now.. He's trolling. Cheers He's not, he's right. Deflecting a tab in the oppostie direction doesn 't remove area. It reduces effective area. No, it doesnīt. The area is stil there. The tab isnīt "hiding" because itīs going the other way, itīs just doing something different. it may be reducing the effectiveness of the surface, but that isnīt the same thing as reducing the area. Nope. Effectiveness is proportional to area -from the old lift equation. Sure, but the area hasn't changed. Don't be so literal, how could the actual sq feet chnage? BUT it's as if the effective area at the AOA of the stabilator is reduced -right? Cheers |
