***

Parametric wing block with integrated aileron geometry, ready for aerodynamic and structural workflows in nTop.

See `how-to-make-ailerons-for-a-wing-block.pdf` for a full walkthrough.

## Installation

Clone this repo or copy the package folder into your nTop workspace:

```bash theme={null}
git clone https://github.com/nTopology/Utilities-community.git
```

The package lives at `packages/harrykeaten-design/wings-with-aileron/`.

## Usage

1. Open `wings-with-aileron.ntop` in nTop 4.12+.
2. Set the wing parameters (span, root chord, taper ratio, quarter chord angle, dihedral).
3. Define the aileron spanwise extents and chord depth factor.
4. Set hinge radius, deflection angles, and tolerance.
5. Use the output implicit body list in your downstream design or simulation workflow.

Refer to `how-to-make-ailerons-for-a-wing-block.pdf` for detailed steps and examples.
