Hi.
I am trying to do the kinematics for a fowler flap for a wing however I am not sure what is the best way to do so. The inboard flap was a simple point on curve joint, where the command was length driven on the point-curve joint. However for the outboard flap which is on a wing that has dihedral and swept back, should point-curve should be used or is there any other way to do so?
Thanks.
