servo tab
Definição1
A small movable tab built into the trailing edge of an aircraft primary control surface. A servo tab is actuated by the cockpit control, and it moves in the direction opposite to the direction the primary surface is to move. The servo tab produces an aerodynamic force that moves the surface on which it is mounted.
