Default RE: Aileron offset...why?

I couldn't help it, the doctor put me on some new anti-migraine medicine and it makes me do strange things.

That is a good shot of the field. Paul, why have you built so many Kadets? It isn't a very zzoooommmmyyy design.

baco, you might look up the date when the Friese aileron was first used and compare that to the date when your design was built. It would give you some idea.

The thing about Friese ailerons is that the benefits might show up when a real pilot is able to feel the benefits - I have to guess that a model is the worst place to try to see a difference. Maybe with instrumentation....
