Abstract
An aerodynamic including a main body and a control member. The main body is configured to be connected to a wing of an aircraft. The control member is connected to the main body, the control member including a fixed member secured to the main body and a pivotable member configured to increase a drag of the aircraft without substantially changing a lift of the aircraft.
Claims18
An aerodynamic component comprising a main body having a cavity therein and configured to be removably connected to a wing of an aircraft such that the wing is capable of being inserted into the main body;
- a control member connected to the main body, the control member comprising a fixed member secured to the main body and a pivotable member configured to increase a drag of the aircraft without substantially changing a lift of the aircraft, the pivotable member being connected to the fixed member through a hinge member, and the pintable member and the fixed member extending from the hinge member in a rearward direction of the aircraft and in a same direction when said control member is in a non-deployed configuration.
An aerodynamic component comprising a main body having a cavity therein and configured to be removably connected to a wing of an aircraft such that the wing is capable of being inserted into the main body;
- a means for increasing a drag of the aircraft without substantially changing a lift of the aircraft, the means comprising a pivotable member configured to pivot on a hinge member relative to a fixed member, the pivotable member and the fixed member extending from the hinge member in a rearward direction of the aircraft and in a same direction when said means is in a non-deployed configuration, and the means being connected to the main body.
