  2. Aileron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aileron

    To achieve this, lead weights may be added to the front of the aileron. In some aircraft the aileron construction may be too heavy to allow this system to work without an excessive increase in the weight of the aileron. In this case, the weight may be added to a lever arm to move the weight well out in front to the aileron body. These balance ...

  3. Flight control surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_surfaces

    A raised aileron reduces lift on that wing and a lowered one increases lift, so moving the aileron control in this way causes the left wing to drop and the right wing to rise. This causes the aircraft to roll to the left and begin to turn to the left. Centering the control returns the ailerons to the neutral position, maintaining the bank angle ...

    Four-aileron, single-seat, factory-built, symmetrical wing, symmetrical ailerons, constant speed two- or three-blade Hartzell propeller. The top wing was moved forward compared to the S-1S for weight and balance. This model was in production in 2008 from Aviat Aircraft as an "on-demand" manufacture product. [4] [8] S-1-11B

  6. Balanced rudder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_rudder

    A balanced rudder is a rudder in which the axis of rotation of the rudder is behind its front edge. This means that when the rudder is turned, the pressure of water caused by the ship's movement through the water acts upon the forward part to exert a force which increases the angle of deflection, so counteracting the pressure acting on the after part, which acts to reduce the angle of deflection.

    Introduced for the 1981 model year with an increased gross takeoff weight of 3,100 lb (1,406 kg) (landing remained at 2,950 lb (1,338 kg)), a new door latch system, and wing root vents. A new model, the T182 (alternatively T182R), was also introduced with a 235 hp (175 kW) Lycoming O-540-L3C5D piston engine. The 1982 model year featured only ...
