Micro Model Airplane Actuators |  |
Hope to update this page soon.
For now you can download this actuator design spreadsheet which is also
handy for making Litz wire. The original document was created by
Gerhard Ringel. I edited the spreadsheet so you can add your own wire.
The instructions are on the first tab and the calculator is on the second tab.
Here's a photo of the first remote actuator I built.
It was a monster at about 1g. It was put into a
6" Gnat bitplane which was pretty uncontrollable.
I did manage to get a few circles out of it and hope to
rebuild the plane someday when I learn more about trimming
small fast models.
The site is a work in progress.
