Good video I was actually thinking that for LSA size planes or even SR22 that with a light construction it might be better to not have flaps because of the reduced complexity leading to ease of construction and lower price and bigger market With certain gear height you can flare the plane If we are talking a quarter of a second more on the brakes if even that, is that not worth it if you can lower the plane weight and cut the cost by maybe 30 A huge problem in aviation is cost and the plane producers are eternal whiners about market size Our WW1 plane has to cost 400k or we can't survive I'm talking about the awful atrocious carbon cub brA Tesla Model 3 starts at 40k$ That's a pretty sophisticated vehicle A carbon cub fabric over metal is over 400k GA is a disgrace

thanks, i wanted to understand flaps better because i'm considering adding flaps on my model: youtube/lvNR_mA-zYE

Flaps don't develop lift, wings do! And they don't add lift Unless you're using flaps that increase the wing area What flaps do do is change the cord line of the wing That's why you can Land at lower speeds with the flaps down The jet could land at the lower speeds without flaps but it would have to increase the angle of attack to such a point that the tail would hit the ground before the wheels would But on some big jets the flaps actually increase the wing area So deploying the flaps would increase lift Again flaps don't add lift (unless the add wing area) they just change the angle of attack the airplane needs to fly to create the same liftbrCome on dive flaps are air brakes Not landing flaps Have nothing to do with landing That airplane comes with split flaps When using landing flaps only the bottom half deploys When they use it as dive flaps (it's really an air brake) The top part opens along with the bottom Not meant to change the cord line in any way Just to create drag So flaps they are not, at least not when used as air brakes

I am new to aviation I dont understand how if flaps increase drag the can effectively increase lift on takeoff Wouldnt the drag at that stag hinder lift? Thank you

Brady are you guys all ok with the hurricane going thru??? Please reply as soon as you get power back on Thanks worried about you!

I'm a Helicopter Mechanic and I live seeing videos on Aviation topics!! You have flaps, ailerons, elevators, stabilators, etc LOL Keep up the GREAT work good sir!! Much respect and support from Yuma, AZ 👍👍 (The big airliners also use Thrust Reverser's to aid in slowing down)

did you re-cut this one? I went live a few days ago but has popped back up today (that's only an FYI)

The PA28-180 I’m training in, I use 25 degrees flaps to takeoff It helps the airplane lift off at a slower smoother speed When I don’t use flaps I need a higher airspeed to liftoff and the nose wheel shimmy’s really bad Thx for the great video!
