Abstract
Variable Sweep Control Wing (VSCW) was introduced to generate the rolling control moment with the sweep angle differences between the left and the right wings. Influence flexible matrixes were generated to obtain the deflection of the effective angle of attack (AOA) of the flexible swept wing. Comparison between aileron control surface and VSCW shows that VSCW can get benefit from wing flexibility, which degrades the control effectiveness of the traditional aileron. The main advantage and difference from the traditional aircraft is that VSCW has higher control effectiveness and can prevent control reversal especially at high flight speed range; and at low speed, with an AOA variation device VSCW can get similar rolling control performance compared with traditional aileron control surface.
