[@NorthernKitty]

You wrote, "educational videos take so much effort..." You're the new "best friend" of technical writers everywhere for pointing this out to people. Breaking things down into the absolute minimal and simplest of concepts is an underappreciated art form. If you do it right, it LOOKS easy, but is actually a lot of work. You did it marvelously, by the way.

I just started flying lessons (after ground school) and while this seemed to make sense, it didn't really. I watched a few other videos on this topic, but I wasn't quite there. Watching this video it's like a light bulb went on in my head, and I totally get it now. Thanks so much - can't wait to watch more of your videos. You'll make a great CFI, if you are not already.

I am excited to see how you explain this. Adverse yaw is a fun concept to ask young student pilots. When they can explain it, you know they are understanding aerodynamics.

[@unexpectediteminbaggingare8074]

[@pardismack]

Nice video. I believe the main purpose of the frize ailerons is to assist the pilot by reducing the effort needed on the yoke and that its effects on adverse yaw aren't that important.

[@ellahodnett4035]

This rly help explain adverse yaw, thx!

[@petethewrist]

Good video.. On an aircraft with power the adverse yaw is not to much of a worry, this is why the pilot can sit back and fly with just his rudder,, Now on gliders with long long wings and no engine to pull the craft around,,, Well this is why glider pilots have to coordinate ruder and ailerons and Elevator all at once.. Cheers Pete

[@SammSheperd]

+pepersorte yea using this airplane was a bit cheating haha. Short wings, differential ailerons, high speed. You glider pilots are the real stick and rudder users

[@petethewrist]

***** Yes and it is a lot safer,, Lol Cheers, Pete

[@K0S0s]

Also nice coordination. Try doing that in a glider.

[@SammSheperd]

Is it worse in gliders because the wings are so long?

[@K0S0s]

ABSOFREAKINGLUTLY Also, look at most glider. The vertical stabilizer is much smaller than most powered aircraft.

[@susanrc73]

+Samm Sheperd (SNRS) It's bad, even though I've only flown a glider, but from what I've seen, it's worse than the Piper.

[@K0S0s]

+Samm Sheperd (SNRS) To be more correct on why it is worse for glider, here is a further reply. The due to the wings being longer, while in a turn, the outside wing is traveling faster than the inside wing. (This is true for any airplane, however the long the wing the greater the effect.) The extra speed equivalates to extra drag causing the outside wing to be pushed backwards just by the ram air. Also, gliders cruise at a much slower airspeed than powered planes (well... the J3 Piper cub may be an exception). Just think, how much rudder authority do you have during slow flight? And you have a much bigger rudder than gliders do. So the mix of small vertical stabilizers, plus slower airspeeds call for more dancing with your feet while flying. Hope that kind of helps. I love talking about gliding and the aerodynamics that go into play. I am sure the views here would love to know how a glider can stay in the air with no engine.

[@SammSheperd]

K0S0s I love gliders! Most people assume they just take a while to come down and have no idea about all the lift out there. The long endurance, cross country and even high altitude records set by gliders is incredible. And I'm sure the joy of a quiet bubble cockpit is just unbeatable.

[@shodanxx]

Great video, so it seems programming some differential ailerons based on yaw gyro input could fix adverse yaw on the flying wing ? Try putting an array of those 1$ bmp180 sensors on your wing to detect boundary layer separation ! When I was in school we made wing surfaces out of straight fiberglass cloth sandwhiched between two shaped metal plates, it was light and very strong. Once you have the mold it was also very efficient in term of man hours to produce a wing section. Are you going to put a little encoder wheel on your AoA sensor ? These guys made one like this but I think their encoder is too expensive (more than 70$usd, but great accuracy, maybe too great) I think it might be possible to embed an accelerometer in AoA vane and just get differential reading with the airframe accelerometer to determine. That should be cheap, lightweight and accurate. Just need to find a tiny slipring that allows for a I2C or SPI signal, maybe something like that use in those 3 axis gimbal with the hollow shafts. How long did it take to print that wing, it looks huge ! What printer type ? Did you see those CNC foam cutter, seems to be very cheap to make with 8mm rods, SC8UU bearings and 8mm leadscrews ! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3zTomx8j7KDp7M Do you have a source for cheap expanded polypropylene foam in the US or CA ? Did you try to make autonomous gps guided UAVs ? I found a technique called RTK GPS that should delivery 2cm positionning accuracy (RTKLIB + ublox NEO-M8N).

[@Samuel.A.Haldar]

finally my doubts have been cleared!!!

[@JamesDowningFPV]

Samm, interesting printed concept. I'm interested to see how well your structure works for you. In my experience, the X cross brace structure like you have shown really doesn't do much for stiffness. If you're fighting top wing plate compressive buckling, either put a simple rib down the center of the wing or make the top thicker. In my experience, that's better use of material and weight in a shell type structure. Thanks for the vid. If I had instragram I'd comment there... but alas I dont.

[@SammSheperd]

+James Downing I didn't either but Carlee made me try it. Slowly growing on me. Thanks a lot for your advise on print structure, that makes a lot of sense. I haven't yet conducted structural testing but I think compressive buckling would be the first failure point.

Thanks, by the way, printing a wing like that will make it very weak as the layer lamination will be the weakest point.
