Default C Axis advice

The notes state:

Custom Axis rotation

The rotate widget in AC3D’s control-panel has been upgraded so that it can handle custom axis ‘C’. Now you can select two vertices (e.g. a line or two vertices along the edge of a model), press “Set axis” and any future rotates with the + or – buttons will rotate the selection around the axis defined by the two vertices. Great for moving an aileron around a wing edge.


However I'm not getting this at all. Does anyone have a better explaination ? Or have used this to move or test an aileron for example.
