This video consists of the following : • Longitudinal axis • Lateral axis • Normal axis • Elevators • Rudders • Ailerons • Elevons • Ruddervators • Flaperons • Had forgot to mention about adverse yaw, so just mentioning a note here in the description: • Adverse yaw is the natural and undesirable tendency for an aircraft to yaw in the opposite direction of a roll. It is caused by the difference in profile drag between the upward and downward deflected ailerons, the difference in lift and thus induced drag between left and right wings, as well as an opposite rotation of each wing's lift vector about the pitch axis due to the rolling trajectory of the aircraft. The effect can be greatly minimized with ailerons or other mechanisms deliberately designed to create more drag when deflected upward than downward and/or mechanisms which automatically apply some amount of coordinated rudder. • To view the next video click the link below • • Control Balancing • Visit the Facebook Page at • www.facebook.com/planesoverhead • Visit the Blog at • www.planesohead.blogspot.com • Like it and Share it if you like it! :D • Cheers and Happy landings! :)
