Default RE: Tailerons on a BARF


ORIGINAL: ravill

Whadda ya guys think about that?

I've had great success with my hornets using tailerons so, I'm just about to start wiring up my Diamond Back BARF and was thinking about using tailerons. Anyone tried it?

OK I think I get it now, you were asking about using the elevators as "tailerons" (i.e. not just normal elevator action but differential ailerons as well), and not all flying stabs as the F-18 uses. I thought you were talking about having all flying stabs (whether used for pitch or pitch and roll)

All I know is you can get a LOT of roll on a BVM bandit with just the ailerons. The pitch control can be separate.
