Aircraft Yaw Motion We can then define the orientation of the aircraft by the amount of rotation of the parts of the aircraft along these principal axes. The yaw axis is perpendicular to the wings and lies in the plane of the aircraft centerline. A yaw motion is a side to side movement of the nose of the aircraft as shown in the animation. The yawing motion is being caused by the deflection of the rudder of this aircraft. The rudder is a hinged section at the rear of the vertical stabilizer. As described on the shape effects slide, changing the angle of deflection at the rear of an airfoil changes the amount of lift generated by the foil.

Steering Position and Yaw A skid is defined as a yaw event. Yaw is a rotational force generated when it is cornering. Center of gravity is the point at which a vehicle rotates in a corner at high speed. The yaw sensor, a Coriolis-type sensor, is located at the center of gravity. The Coriolis effect depends on the velocity of the moving object (a vehicle in a cornering maneuver), and centrifugal force, which does not depend on the velocity of the moving object (the rotation of the chassis in a skid).
