Title: how does an amraam fly?
Post by: fael097 on November 04, 2010, 02:23:47 pm

im rigging a 3d model, and i wanted to know how the amraam wings behave, as its not the convencional airplane wings aerodynamics system.

does the front wings rotate, or move in any way or those are static?
the back wings move independantly?

 ;)

Forward fins stabilize and are static, rear fins control direction of movement via coordinated rotation around pivot points at the fins' bases. Took me the better half of two minutes to google this.  ;)

So your time is worth more than someone elses?  Generally, that's not an attitude that goes over well.

you know what does not go well? trolling forums telling people to google stuff up.
i searched on google for a while, and didnt find anything. maybe i wasnt specific enough, and didnt use the same keywords he used, so i came here, a good community, where people know many things related to aviation, to ask it, so maybe someone that already knew that stuff could help me out.

Yeh, so I learned my lesson. Good luck finding those bits of info yourself next time around.
