[quote=Edge540T_Flyer;194436]Some types of aircraft require "aileron differential".
Its got to do with having more lift on one wing and less drag on the other or visa versa. It keeps your aileron rolls more axial once you find the proper adjustment.
You want to have equal amounts of drag versus lift so the wings are rotating around the fuselage at the same rate of speed, otherwise your roll is more of a "barrel roll".

So when you find the right adjustment this will make your rolls and snaps and other axial moves tighter and more precise then?
