  2. Sterndrive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterndrive

    Advantages of the sterndrive system versus inboards include simpler engineering for boatbuilders, eliminating the need for them to design propshaft and rudder systems; ease of trailering and shallow water maneuvering (with the drive trimmed up); also, a significant space savings with the engine mounted all the way aft, freeing up the boat's ...

  3. 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.

  4. Dynamic trimming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_trimming

    Dynamic trimming or dynamic trim optimization is an automated process used to control the trim of a large ship. The trim of a ship is the height difference between the draft of its hull. It represents the angle at which the ship is floating, relative to a designated water line.

  5. Outboard motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outboard_motor

    Trim is the angle of the motor in relation to the hull, as illustrated below. The ideal trim angle is the one in which the boat rides level, with most of the hull on the surface instead of plowing through the water. If the motor is trimmed out too far, the bow will ride too high in the water. With too little trim, the bow rides too low.

  6. Self-steering gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-steering_gear

    The Braine steering gear was a fine-tuned system of quadrant on the rudder stock driven by the tension of the mainsail sheet and damped by a rubber band. A more sophisticated system called the vane gear was later devised, it relied on a small vane or airfoil driving the main rudder via an adjustable system

  7. Flap (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

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

    A type of split flap that slides backward along curved tracks that force the trailing edge downward, increasing chord and camber without affecting trim or requiring any additional mechanisms. [19] It was invented by Arthur Gouge for Short Brothers in 1936 and used on the Short Empire and Sunderland flying boats, which used the very thick Shorts ...

  9. 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.
