From Degrees To Inches ? 1 degree = .017 inches (17 thousandths of an inch) If the surface is 1 inch wide and is deflected 10 degrees. it will move 10 x .017= .170 inches , roughly 3/16 of an inch. If the surface is only 1/2 inch wide divide .017 in half. If the surface is 2 inches wide multiply .017 x 2.
2. In cell B1 you put the number of degrees of deflection. 3. In cell C1 you put the following equation to calculate the inches: =A1*TAN (B1*PI ()/180) What we have done here is use the formula that one of the gentleman above listed out in long hand. The only difference is that Execl (by default) uses radians.
Divide the control throw by the width: .5/2 = .25 A scientific calculator will have a Sin to the -1 power. This is the inverse or arc sine, meaning it is the angle whose sine is the number you enter. Usually you get the inverse Sin by using the 2nd key then the Sin. With .25 showing, press 2nd, Sin for 14.48 degrees.
Its probably easier to work in metric (ie mm or meters) to be honest. Find the radius in mm, calculate the arc length L in mm, convert into inches, then divide by 12 for the number of whole feet, then simply multiply the decimal remainder by 12 for the number of remainder inches. Hope this helps.
One degree=one mile at a distance of 60 miles. Just change the units, ex.: One degree= one inch at 60 inches, or six degrees=six inches at 60 inches, or six degrees=.6in at 6inches and so on. Hope this helps.
Questions and Answers - Degrees into inches to setup controls - I have an edge 540 that wants 20 degrees on elevator deflection and I don't have anything to set throws up in degrees. All I have is an inch meter. Is there a formula to convert degrees into inches so I can setup these control surfaces correctly. Any help
The sine of an angle is the hypotenuse (the width of the control surface) divided by the movement. Suppose your elevator is 2 inches wide and you want to know the movement for 10 degrees. Sine 10 = x/2, or 2 sin 10 =x. On the calculator, enter 10, press the sin button, then times 2 and =.
RE: Convert Millimeters to Degrees. Google can do the calculations for you. Enter: 180/pi*arcsin (deflection/chord) in the search field using the same units for the deflection and control surface chord. Example: 180/pi*arcsin (20/50) = 23,6 degrees.

Questions and Answers - Convert control throw inches to degrees - I have a plane that requires control service movement in degrees. I only have a Great Planes AccuThrow to measure. It only measures in inches or mm. How do I convert the degrees to inches/mm? Or if I had a plane that requires inches/mm--- how to convert
