aileroninduced
Aileron-induced roll is a phenomenon in aviation that occurs when the movement of an aircraft’s ailerons—control surfaces on the wings used to roll the aircraft—causes unintended or exaggerated rolling moments. This effect can arise from various aerodynamic and structural factors, leading to reduced control effectiveness or even loss of control in certain flight conditions.
The primary cause of aileron-induced roll is often linked to the difference in aerodynamic forces between the
Another contributing factor is wing flex or deformation under load, particularly in high-performance or large aircraft.
Pilots and engineers address aileron-induced roll through design modifications, such as differential aileron travel (where the
