  • Flaperon Equations

    I'm having difficulty finding an equation to link both the flaps and ailerons together on my rc plane. These are the current numbers i have so far:
    Airfoil: GOE 226
    Wing Length: 46.495 in.
    Cord Length: 8.5 in.
    Flaperon length: 15.498 in
    Flaperon width: 2.125 in

    I calculated the flaps which gave me around 18 degrees of movement, however i'm not sure if there will need to be more movement due to the aileron aspect.

    Thank you for any insight or guidance.
