Trying Out Thrust Vectoring! | Flite Test

With gyro-stabilized thrust vectoring and a very aft-balanced center of gravity, the JAS-39 Gripen can perform a high alpha pass that rivals anything else out there. Don't like gyros? That's neat, nobody asked. PS: All of your favorite full-scale fighter jets use even more complicated gyros than our hobby-grade equipment. #aviation #rc #rcplane #jas39 #gripen highalphapass | Two Brothers Radio Control

“Thrust vector control” means directing the exhaust of an engine in such a way as to change course or provide lift. In some rockets, an exhaust nozzle is able to shift on an axis, and this allows the rocket to change course, or maintain its course to target. for your refrance you can see this video. History Thrust vector control : The first gimbaled rocket engines were flown on MX-774 on July 14, 1948. It had four combustion chambers that could each swivel on one axis: the first reference I foun

It’s crazy to see how a thrust vectoring motor works and how much air it pushes around now let’s try to put one of these in an airplane and see what it will do! | Flite Test
