Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2761658A1] The invention concerns a control device for the rudder units of an aircraft comprising a fuselage (10), a motor (12) and a propeller (14), a rudder unit (26), and a front wing (18) mounted pivoting about a pivot pin (20) passing substantially through the maximum lift axis and a fixed rear wing (22), means for controlling the mobile elements. The invention is characterised in that it comprises at least a servo-tab arranged on the front wing (18) trailing edge, and at least a control unit for manoeuvring at least the servo-tab upwards or downwards so as to modify the front wing (18)incidence angle by rotation about its pivot pin (20).
