Sig Seniorita ailerons???
I know there is a thead with this info in it somewhere but I can't seem to find it. So I was wondering if anybody could tell me or send me some rough plans/pictures of how to put ailerons on my seniorita(ex. size, placement and hardware/wood).Any help with this would be great.
Thanks
Chris

RE: Sig Seniorita ailerons???
Chris, I added ailerons to my 'Rita by building up "barn door" type. Ther are bapproximately 2" wider and by the photos you can tell how long I made them. It took some work to do this, but I used the same method from the Sig Citabria I'm building. I use seperate HS-81 servos and even though they look a bit small, they are more than enough for this balsa monster LOL.
Some people add strip ailerons, which are the easiest to install and only takes one servo. I just like to experiment with this type of plane. There is also a website to peruse:http://users.adelphia.net/~pjburke1011/kadets.htm
Here are some pics of my gal in the bones as well as covered:
Good luck with your build. jollyroger

Chris,
I added full span ailerons to my Senorita. I removed about 3/8" from the trailing edge, and added 1 1/4" pre formed ailerons with two servos in the wing panels. The addition is pretty straightforward. I removed about half the dihedral from the wing, and the roll rate is out of this world. The Webra 32 Speed GT helps out too.
