Beveled ailerons were constructed with the bevel built up by spreading the upper and lower surfaces apart behind the hinge making a slight inside corner on each surface. During flight tests, it was noted that these ailerons showed a somewhat greater useful range of deflections and gave slightly better control at low speed than did original ailerons.
