[rebel-builders] Rebel - Elevator deflection angle

Post by Bob Patterson » Sun Feb 19, 2012 5:29 pm

Hi Jay !

Your setting sounds just fine. I believe the original factory spec.
was 25 degrees up and 25 degrees down ....

Personally, I won't test fly a Rebel with less that 27 degrees of up ...
don't really care too much about the down ... so, up to 30 degrees of
up is ok with me ... but 27 is enough, and works well for me.

The original builder set the Elevator with 20 degree up and 30 degree down
(in reference to Horizontal stabilizer), I have since re-rigged to 27
Degree up and 24 degree down, to get a better low speed control authority.
Before it was hard to stall the airplane and now it has becoming much more
sensitive to High AOA and stall.



What's the angle the factory suggested? I was told by an experience Rebel
pilot, it should be 30 degree up and 20 degree down, is that reference to
the Horizontal stabilizer? Can any one shines the light on me?
