Control Surfaces
Forces Four
100

What is the place called where all three axes meet?

Center of Gravity

100

These control surfaces add lift and drag.

Flaps

100

Another name for Weight.

Gravity

200

This axis creates a movement known as yaw.

Vertical Axis

200

This control surface is on the tail.

Rudder

200

This Force makes the plane go forward.

Thrust

300

This Axes cause the plane to turn during the flight.

Longitudinal Axis

300

This makes the plane pitch to the up or down.

Elevators

300

This natural force always pulls on the airplane.

Drag

400

This axes go through the plane from wing tip to wing tip.

Lateral Axis

400

This makes the plane bank to the left or right by the movement of roll.

Rudder

400
