Title: Incorporating elevators, rudders, and ailerons | RC Airplane
Post by: tejasmehrotra on February 12, 2011, 06:34:29 PM
Hello,

I am a newbie at making RC airplanes, and while I am working on my first project, I couldn't really figure out as to how do I incorporate elevators, rudders and ailerons on my craft. For example, how do I create a hinge joint between the elevator and the horizontal stabilizer. I hope I was able to convey my problem.

I would be glad if anyone could help me out with this, as most you must already be knowing on how to go about it.

By the way, I am using Blue Form as the fabrication material, and length of the horizontal stabilizer is around 40 cm. (Just in case you need this information)

Thanks so much. You have a great weekend.

Regards.

It would be better if we built up our own information content as much as possible :headscratch:

Hope these topics help !
