Abstract

See full text

An airborne vehicle having a deployable airfoil with an elevon wherein the deployment of the airfoil and the control of the elevon are both powered by a single servo mechanism. A shear pin prevents relative movement between the elevon and the airfoil until the airfoil is in the deployed position. A stop mechanism locks the airfoil in the deployed position, whereafter operation of the drive mechanism fractures the shear pin, thereby allowing the elevon to be controlled by the drive mechanism.
