Control Surface Deflection Meter from BenchCraft - BCT5029-001
Take the guesswork out of configuring your aircraft with the BenchCraft Control Surface Deflection Meter. Designed for modelers who demand precision, this essential flight box tool allows you to easily measure and set high, mid, and low rates exactly to your manual's specifications. Featuring dual integrated measuring arms, it slides effortlessly onto the trailing edge of your aircraft's flying surfaces. This design allows you to read exact movements in real-time as you adjust transmitter endpoints or dual rates. No more awkward fumbling with standard rulers or dealing with inaccurate visual estimations—just reliable, symmetrical, and repeatable throws every single time you bench test.
Engineered to support a wide variety of RC aircraft configurations, this versatile gauge includes clear millimeter markings on the front to seamlessly match modern instruction manuals. If your build requires standard measurements, simply remove two screws to flip the gauge over for crisp, easy-to-read markings in inches. It is the ultimate tool for fine-tuning ailerons, flaps, rudders, and elevators to ensure predictable aerodynamic performance and prevent dangerous over-controlling during a maiden flight. Available at Motion RC, this affordable, lightweight deflection meter is a must-have addition to enhance any pilot's workshop.
