Fortunately, due to the small scale of the rcraft, experimental measurements can be easily made for each axis of the aircraft. The experimental setup for the roll axis is shown in Figure 2-2. From the aircraft free body diagram, the tension in each cable, T, is ngTable 2.1: Trainer 60 ARF measurements, experimentally determined inertias as shown in Subsection 2.1.1.
