Hi Group
Has anyone figured out how to use an I-Phone to measure aileron travel?
You need to compensate for dihederal or else you will be underead.
An app? Perhaps a spreadsheet or chart?
Thx. Ron P.
BTW I have a Starett precision protractor, but an I-Phone is a lot more convenient.

I will go and ask my friend Pythagoras Trigonometry who knows about such things. He might need his pal, Ruler and his kids Paper and Pencil to help as well.

And an iphone for the Sine table, no doubt.

I checked mine by installing a bubble spirit level app on my phone that also displayed the angle in degrees to two decimal places. Set you aileron to the neutral position, reset the bubble spirit level to zero, then move your aileron in the direction you want to measure. It should show you how many degrees it has moved.

All the best
