2. Trim tab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trim_tab

   Typical trim tabs on aileron, rudder and elevator. Trim tabs are small surfaces connected to the trailing edge of a larger control surface on a boat or aircraft, used to control the trim of the controls, i.e. to counteract hydro- or aerodynamic forces and stabilise the boat or aircraft in a particular desired attitude without the need for the operator to constantly apply a control force.

3. Flight control surfaces - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_surfaces

   Most fixed-wing aircraft have a trimming control surface on the elevator, but larger aircraft also have a trim control for the rudder, and another for the ailerons. The rudder trim is to counter any asymmetric thrust from the engines. Aileron trim is to counter the effects of the centre of gravity being displaced from the aircraft centerline ...

4. Servo tab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_tab

   An anti-servo tab on the elevator of an American Aviation AA-1 Yankee. An anti-servo tab, or anti-balance tab, works in the opposite way to a servo tab. It deploys in the same direction as the control surface, making the movement of the control surface more difficult and requires more force applied to the controls by the pilot.

5. Trim - Wikipedia

   Trim tab, in aircraft and boats, an adjustable surface part of a larger control surface used to maintain a desired orientation Trim, adjustment of a sail on a ship or boat Trim (sailing ballast), adjustment of sailing ballast

7. Aileron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aileron

   Some large aircraft from the 1950s (including the Canadair Argus) used free floating control surfaces that the pilot controlled only through the deflection of trim tabs, in which case additional tabs were also provided to fine-tune the control to provide straight and level flight. [citation needed]

8. Stabilizer (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stabilizer_(aeronautics)

   A Boeing 737 uses an adjustable stabilizer, moved by a jackscrew, to provide the required pitch trim forces. Generic stabilizer illustrated. A horizontal stabilizer is used to maintain the aircraft in longitudinal balance, or trim: [3] it exerts a vertical force at a distance so the summation of pitch moments about the center of gravity is zero.
