Roll, pitch and yaw Roll, pitch and yaw. Roll, pitch and yaw are rotations along the natural axes of the helicopter (or any aircraft). A rolling movement is where the helicopter rotates along a line along its length using lateral cyclic inputs (aileron), eventually turning from right way up to inverted while maintaining the helicopter's heading.

- Lateral (pitch) axis -- an imaginary line from wingtip to wingtip. 1  Rotation about the lateral axis is called pitch and is controlled by the elevator. 2  The rotation is similar to a seesaw. 3  This is known as the airplane's pitch attitude.

- The WSC Hire Laser rudders have been setup to use a rope ‘pulley’ in order to increase the tension in the downhaul line. Figure 1 shows the downhaul line with the rudder blade in the up position. A bowline loop can clearly be seen. The downhaul rope should be routed as shown in figure 1, inside the rudder stock.

Roll, pitch and yaw Not to be confused with blade pitch or collective pitch. A yawing movement is where the helicopter's heading is changed by rotating the nose to one side or the other around the main mast, using the anti-torque control. A properly trimmed helicopter will have minimal tendency to rotate in any of these dimensions when the controls are released. Flight dynamics on Wikipedia.

- Anyway, the best definition of what a Yaw rate sensor can be found here.... In layman's terms it is a sensor that is located near the middle of the vehicle, under the center arm rest console, that detects if the car is moving or sliding sideways. Like going around a corner.

yaw Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia. [yaw] 1. a lesion of yaws. 2. the deviation of an object from its usual path (see illustration). Effect of yaw on wounding potential. Yawing is the deviation of a bullet in its longitudinal axis from the straight line of flight. Modified from Swan and Swan, 1980.

Flight dynamics For example, a pitching moment is a vertical force applied at a distance forward or aft from the center of gravity of the aircraft, causing the aircraft to pitch up or down. Roll, pitch and yaw refer, in this context, to rotations about the respective axes starting from a defined equilibrium state. The equilibrium roll angle is known as wings level or zero bank angle, equivalent to a level heeling angle on a ship.

Yaw (rotation) Yaw (rotation) A yaw rotation is a movement around the yaw axis of a rigid body that changes the direction it is pointing, to the left or right of its direction of motion. The yaw rate or yaw velocity of a car, aircraft, projectile or other rigid body is the angular velocity of this rotation, or rate of change of the heading angle when the aircraft is horizontal.

Yaw (rotation) The yaw rate or yaw velocity of a car, aircraft, projectile or other rigid body is the angular velocity of this rotation, or rate of change of the heading angle when the aircraft is horizontal. It is commonly measured in degrees per second or radians per second. yaw rotation is a movement around the yaw axis of a rigid body that changes the direction it is pointing, to the left or right of its direction of motion.

Helicopter For a standard helicopter with a single main rotor, the tips of the main rotor blades produce a vortex ring in the air, which is a spiraling and circularly rotating airflow. As the craft moves forward, these vortices trail off behind the craft.
