Babcock V Escapement

Post by RalphJ »

Just been looking at a 1963 American plan of a neat little 'single channel' biplane that I quite fancy having a go at. The design used a Babcock V escapement to somehow give up and down elevator as well as rudder. Anyone ever come across one of these? How did they get two channel operation from a single channel set-up?
