Default RE: crazy roll


ORIGINAL: spitncobra

Could someone explain turbulator. thank you guys you saved my plane and mostly my nerves.Your advice also stopped my knees
from knocking together each flight.
Read the Wilkapedia explanation for some of the more involved stuff. Basically Turbulator(s) are pieces or strips of material that tries to prevent the air from smoothly "sticking" to a surface.
The "why" of needing this done -depends on the plane -the speed etc..
On our models - really of no need - we are simply flying stuf too small and too slow. Some will say it is needed -
I could never proove it was needed.
