A control surface assembly for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is disclosed. The control surface assembly has a fin configured to be rotatably coupled to a fuselage of the UAV, with a control surface member rotatably coupled to the fin. A control surface linkage is configured to be coupled between the control surface member and an actuator disposed in the fuselage. The fin is rotatable with respect to the fuselage between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. In the deployed configuration, the control surface linkage is configured to rotate the control surface member with respect to the fin, when the actuator actuates the control surface linkage. In the stowed configuration, however, the control surface linkage is configured to move with respect to the fin without rotating the control surface member, when the actuator actuates the control surface linkage.
