If a model is to fly satisfactorily its Centre of Gravity and its longitudinal dihedral must both be correct. Inaccurate incidence settings can lead to innumerable unnecessary test-flights or - in the worst case - to an immediate crash.
With the Incidence Gauge you can avoid this uncertainty on the first flight. The prism or measuring mandrel can be used to check the incidence of:
The following useful measurements are also possible:
• rotor blade pitch (model helicopters) • motor downthrust (glow and electric motors) • wing washout (or warps) • take-off angle of attack (wheel position) • simple to assemble and use
