Wingtip Rudders?

310 LittleKachowski  7.2 years ago

I have made a recreation of the Desert Fox from the very popular franchise "Crimson Skies." This plane consists of a low-wing configuration with wingtip rudders. The design holds true, but the rudders work in almost the opposite direction. Left is right, and right is left. Many planes I have been eying in the future feature this. If you have a solution, feel free to toss anything you have at me.

    Keep the rudders but use the gyros to provide the actual yaw force

    In reality, those rudders are too close to the center of mass to do anything. That can only work in cartoons.
