Question:

Aileron reversal speed can be increased by

Show Hint

Aileron reversal happens at high speeds when wing twist negates aileron input — stiffer wings delay this.

  • increasing the offset distance between the aerodynamic center and center of twist
  • increasing the offset distance between the C.G. of the airplane and center of twist
  • increasing the stiffness of the wing
  • increasing the offset distance between the aerodynamic center and C.G of the airplane

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

A stiffer wing resists torsional deformation, thus raising the speed at which aileron reversal (loss of aileron effectiveness due to wing twist) would occur.
