Description

  • Content Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation to determine the automatic lateral stability characteristics of a model equipped with a gyro stabilizing unit that gave response to bank and yaw. Stable flights were obtained with the flicker-type automatic control, and the amplitude of the oscillations was decreased by adding the attachment which provided hunting control.
