Abstract: The invention relates to an angle setting device of hinge type, especially for use in model airplanes. Two hinge members (3,5) are jointed to each other via pins (6). An actuator (1) is pivotable, and the swing angle of the hinge can be set by the pivoting of the actuator (1). This is achieved by the actuator being mechanically controlled (10,11) in the first hinge member (3) along a certain surface, as well as being mechanically controlled (4,7) along a second surface in the second hinge member (5), said two surfaces forming an angle with each other.
