Abstract

756,019. Controlling aircraft. VICKERS-ARMSTRONGS (AIRCRAFT), Ltd. April 24, 1950 [March 2, 1949], No. 5719/49. Class 4. [Also in Group XXI] The wings of a wing-controlled aircraft are mounted for movement, in unison or differentially, solely about axes perpendicular to their spanwise axes and to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The wing beams 17 terminate in frames 18 rotatable about pillars 13, under the control of two motors 28, each driving worm gearing 22, 21 to move one wing. Movement of the wings in unison controls the craft in pitch, movement of the wings in varying degree or differentially producing control in roll. Specification 595,464 is stated to describe the prototype of this aircraft.
