Default RE: Leading edge flaps


ORIGINAL: terminalv

Has anyone had experience with leading edge flaps? I am doing a Byron F-18 and am trying to create a scale wing. Any information on the subject would be greatly desired. Thanks,

Matt J


I tried them this weekend on a F-22 and they work fine, no attitude change at all as long as the trailing edge flaps come down twice as far as the leading in degrees, otherwise the aircraft will generally pitch down slightly.
