GliderThrow is a digital Angle/Throw meter and ... Differentials!
This small device can measure
the deflections in degrees / millimeters with a resolution of 0.1
degrees and can measure the differential when working together with a
second unit since GliderThrow is a system that comprises two sensors,
one for each wing or surface of your airplane.
Using a dual system very much
simplifies the throw setting of your model by having a direct view of
both control surfaces at the same time.
GliderThrow has been initially
conceived for setting the aileron and flap throws of a model glider but
you will find that it can be used on most every airplane and for a
variety of applications as Measuring a dihedral angle of a wing,
Measuring Model Airplane Incidence angle , etc.
The data can be viewed through any web browser on a smartphone, Android or iOS, PC or MAC.
The device is held in place by a powerful neodymium magnetic peg combined with a non-slip surface.
GliderThrow does not need any app to work. When turning on both units,
search with your smartphone or PC for WiFi Ap called "GliderThrow" and
connect. Once connected, you will access the GliderThrow site trough
your web browser.
