Abstract
A device for controlling an aerodynamic body having a searching head, a sensor and setting members for exerting a transversal force on the aerodynamic body into a target due to the sensor signals. In order to make possible a simple design of this device which can also be used for small aerodynamic bodies, the sensor and the setting members are arranged at a common rotor which rotates, driven about the longitudinal axis of the aerodynamic body, and can be influenced by means of a braking system as to its angular position relative to the aerodynamic body, generating a transversal force on the aerodynamic body.
