[NSRCA-discussion] Masters Set-Up

[Amir Neshati]

I glanced through it...about throttle to aileron mix section. My experience
has been the opposite. I've always noticed the airplanes roll slightly to
the left (not right as the article states) when throttle is reduced.  I've
flown many different sizes, including  .60 size, 2 meter stuff and some big
IMAC machines. Even flown quite a few of other people's planes (some more
than the owners flew themselves :-), all built really well by talented
modelers & builders. All rolled left, not right..Torque wants to roll the
plane left when accelerating, the slip stream/pitch factor wants to roll the
plane right at speed, which becomes the dominating force at or near full
speed, so we carry left aileron trim at full throttle, when we throttle
back, the left trim now takes over and rolls the plane to the left..In
short, right aileron needs to be mixed with low throttle.

Hi Jim,

 

I would like too add to that reading material an article written by

Peter Goldsmith regarding trimming seen here:

http://www.mini-iac.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabid=70

 

Peter's article is on the far right side of the page under "special"

articles.  This is on of the best trimming article I've read and goes a

little further than a list of tests to perform.

 

Thanks,

Jim W.

Hi Jim,

 

If you haven't already, I really recommend going through these trim

instructions with your airplane:
