Netters, I’m trying to find some numbers on elevator and aileron air loads. So I have two questions:
1: Without considering any mechanical advantage from the control stick, does anyone have an idea what kind of maximum aerodynamic loads one might see on the actual control surfaces? 2: What are your actual control forces at the stick with the mechanical advantage it provides? For context I’m trying to size some push pull tubes. Looking at column bending graphs for 4130 steel or 2024 aluminum tubing is great, but only if you know the maximum load it must resist! Much appreciated if you have a ballpark idea, but even better if you have some actual test data you’d be willing to share. Thanks all, Evan -- KRnet mailing list KRnet@list.krnet.org https://list.krnet.org/mailman/listinfo/krnet
