strip ailerons
if you were to put strip ailerons on a semi-symetrical-flat bottomed constant chord wing, would you anticipate the neutral position to be slightly down or parrallel with the wings underside? i'm thinking that the parrallel position wouldact like slightly"up" flaps on a u-control and requiresome additionalamount ofnegativestab incidence tocombat it.of course, the ensuingadditional drag of slightlyup neutral positionaileronsis understood,as i believe a wing of this type has allot of down wash compared to a fully symetrical wing, where strip ailerons are commonly seen. i also realise this issomething that might have to be found out during maiden flight, just wondering if i can predict a reasonablycloseinitial set-up and a reatively smooth maiden flight for this build.
secondly, is there any advantage to keeping the ailerons fairly narrow in this situation? innitially, i thought i wouldmake them wider at thefuse and narrow taper them towards thewing tips to give the wing some tapered looks.
what are your thoughts and thanks in advance........ronward
