Abstract
Eight monoplane wind van e combinations with two arm lengths and four vane weights are tested in a wind tunnel concerning their time constants of performed damped oscillation in the tunnel air current. The time constants are investigated with respect to the arm length and moment of inertia, the vane form being kept constant. The tested air current speed ranges from 5 to 20 m/s.
