Take a look at "Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators" NAVWEPS 00-80T-00, Page
295.... "Maule Driver" wrote in message m... 2 channel (w/o ailerons) works great. You'll never see a aileron-less model without dihedral (I understand swept wings work too but I've never seen that). single channel works too - how does one do a loop with rudder-only? Quite well thank you. Acrobatic R/C with a normal configuration a/c are often straight winged or close too it. That's to isolate the function of the rudder so it causes yaw only. Works pretty well except for some effects from fuselage blanking and such. But that's when R/C aircraft were mosting just trying to model full scale aircraft. That balloon was busted a long time ago. What is this? http://youtube.com/watch?v=K6besEwoR...c%20hydroplane wrote: I've often wondered how 2 channel R/C works without ailerons (obviously well enough, right?) I know a guy with a Yak-52, and I've noticed what looks like an almost complete lack of dihedral on its wing. I suppose that has a lot to do with its stability (or lack thereof?) The Chinese version (Nanchang) has dihedral starting on approx the outer 1/3rd of its span IIRC. |
