GliderCG Throw Meter and Wing Incidence Tool (Multi-Purpose Digital Angle Throw Meter, and can measure the dihedral angle of a wing, measure incidence angles, etc.) 

GliderThrow is a digital Angle/Throw meter that provides differentials, too! This small device can measure the deflections in degrees / millimeters with a resolution of 0.1 degrees and can measure the differential when working together with a second unit (since GliderThrow is a system that utilizes two sensors, one for each wing or surface of your airplane).

Using a dual system simplifies the throw setting of your model by having a direct view of both control surfaces at the same time.GliderThrow was initially conceived for setting the aileron and flap throws of a model glider. However, you will find that it can be used on most every airplane and for a variety of applications, such as measuring the dihedral angle of a wing, measuring incidence angles, etc.

The data can be viewed through any web browser on a smartphone, Android or iOS, PC or MAC. GliderThrow does not need any app to work. When turning on both units, search with your smartphone or PC for WiFi AP (access point) called "GliderThrow" and connect to it. Once connected, you will access the GliderThrow device through your web browser.

A powerful Neodymium magnet along with a non-slip surface ensures that GliderThrow stays in place.

The latest version incorporates rechargeable and replaceable Li-Ion coin batteries as well as the ability to charge through the USB-C port. This allows the removal of the battery if it is not being used for an extended period of time.

GliderThrow Wing Incidence Tool

Stacks Image 94

Measuring the incidence (angle between the wing and horizontal stabilizer centerlines) is easy with our Wing Incidence Tool.

Merely use the GliderThrow units with the Wing Incidence Tool!

Five easy steps:

  • Setup your plane on the bench in a horizontal position.
  • Install the Wing Incidence Tool on the wing and stab and lock them in place by tightening the screws on each part.
  • Place both GliderThrow units on a level surface and reset them.
  • Place each unit on the magnetic support of each beam (place GliderThrow units with hinge marking towards the leading edge).
  • View the incidence angle on GliderThrow's "Differential" screen.
