The Controlwing Aircraft 770474

A new concept in aircraft control and stability has been developed having greater control effectiveness than the Aileron, rudder, elevator system. It is structurally simple having no movable vanes subject to flutter. There are no stall or spin characteristics. This system has natural gust-alleviation properties and as there are but two primary controls no coordination is needed in piloting.
