EXPERIMENT 3

Mechanical Trimming
What is Mechanical Trimming?

Mechanical trimming or the process of doing mechanical trimming is done during the flight stage. It is the manual adjustment of servos on the plane so that it would not roll, pitch, or yaw without the user moving the sticks on the remote controller. The process of doing mechanical trimming is done by flying the newly built fixed wing drone and carefully observing it if it moves on it's own without any movement on the remote controller or any external force. Land the plane and manually adjust the servos to the users liking. The process of mechanical trimming can last for only minutes or for hours depending on how the plane flies. It is a trial and error process until the plane flies properly.
