Aileron mass balance is a mechanism used in aircraft to reduce aerodynamic forces on the control surfaces, specifically the ailerons. It helps to prevent flutter and minimize control forces required to maneuver the aircraft. This system typically involves attaching a counterweight to the aileron to balance out the control forces.
