What will aileron differential do to the airplane and is it necessary or is it more of a preference thing??
thanks,
Jeff

RE: aileron differential

There is more drag created by the downward deflecting aileron the the upward one, therefore the airframe has a tendency to yaw toward the draggy side, not good in rolling manuevers.

So you give the downward deflecting aileron LESS deflection than the upward one, at a certain differential the airframe will track true when rolling with out any yaw.

RE: aileron differential

And how, Grasshopper, do you achieve this when you have only one servo and therefore cannot use "mixing" with your transmitter?
