Mounting a turn coordinator on the tail?
(Things are so slow in this group at the moment, I thought I'd post
this to get your input on something I've been mulling over...) If you put a plane into a skidding left turn (wings level) with left rudder, the ball on the panel goes to the right. However, I've been trying to work out what would happen to the ball if it was mounted on the tail. The rudder is pushing the tail of the plane to the right, so I think the ball would go to the left. Can anyone confirm this? Tim. |
