The tall wing also helped out in another unintended way, by giving the car directional stability due to its deeply splinted sides.
32.
At higher speeds, the performance is such that the normal increased responsiveness from speed is avoided and it provides improved directional stability.
33.
A side effect of this was that the boat lacked directional stability and was extremely difficult to hold on a straight course.
34.
It follows that the condition of the rear tyres is more critical to directional stability than the state of the front tyres.
35.
Recirculated propwash airflow caused by combination of wing tilt and flap deflection produced large erratic aerodynamic disturbances and loss of directional stability.
36.
"' Directional stability "'is stability of a moving body or vehicle about an axis which is perpendicular to its direction of motion.
37.
Aircraft lack the symmetry between pitch and yaw, so that directional stability in yaw is derived from a different set of stability derivatives.
38.
An additional problem was that the fin hampered the directional stability of the aircraft and caused it to yaw after 3 5 shots.
39.
An updated model of SIGMO, currently in the research and development stage, will incorporate more precise control over limb movement and directional stability.
40.
The fuselage remained deep and high sided back to the tail, possibly offering some directional stability in the absence of a fixed fin.
