Could anybody please enlighten me on the control system used by the Wright brothers. I know they used a wing warp mechanism with a mechanically connected rudder to make up for adverse yaw.
Any further information would be appreciated as well possible links to relavant web sites with diagrams.
Cheers.

Zhuntar, you obviously have access to the Net, so use it!

Download WebFerret if you dont have it and it will pull out hundreds of links on "Wright Brothers".

Takes (you) seconds...

Sorry, I tried but the links did not work.
