Rudder

9/20/2024 

 Balanced Barn door rudder which can either be attached from just the top or form a top and bottom, which is a rudder with a shaft through the middle which will spin the rudder.  

 Benefits: 

 

 Less force needed so steer the rudder  

 relatively simple to use a stepper motor with 

 can be made modular 

 

 Cons: 

 

 Fails to support big boats 

 more likely to break if hits an object 

 If we attach only from the top is less stable
