Fabionet.

It depends on which Vendetta your taking about

If it is a Vanbaren´s Vendetta the airfoil is SD6060 I think.

Ifi it is a Larsons Vendetta, there are 2 or 3 versions with different airfoils.

From the image your posting this seems to me as a Naca 66-112 which is the airfoil of a third Vendetta which exists some time ago (Known as Vendetta Matrix) but I cant recall who the designer was.

Hope this helps.

Ciao and Grazie

Wow! we have someone from Italy here. Now thats cool. Mostly because my wife is Italin and boy can she cook. Anyway welcome aboard B.P .R.

FABIO THAT AIRFOIL IS SD6060, VAN VAREN´S VENDETTA OR MISS ASHLEY.

THE FAST Q40 AIRPLANE IS THE AUSTRALIAN POLECAT, IT HAS A MH24 AIRFOIL.

YOU CAN USE THE ITALIAN AIRFOIL SOFTWARE PROFILI TO GET THE AIRFOIL COORDINATES, IF YOU CAN´T SEND ME A MAIL
AND I WILL SEND IT TO YOU.

The Vendetta holds the current National record in Q40, and has done quite well in the past few nats. I'm still not sure why more racers don't fly them, but they are completely capable of keeping up with the Polecats.

Nothing against the Polecat, I love that plane also. There is just something about how the Vendetta flies that keeps bringing me back.

I've flown all three airfoils, and honestly, can't tell the difference. The newest airfoil that Lyle is using has worked well for me.

Just to support Daven´s comment.

Check out the Winners of the last Q40 contest

- 3 Vendettas in the first 10 spots (one of them the one setting the new national record)
- 3 Polecats
- 2 Proud Birds (Larson)
- 1 Proud Bird (Jim Allen)
- 1 GR-7 (BBR)

Many thanks Racers for help we ..[sm=thumbup.gif]

My original wing that I have used to build the mould (in agreement with Lyle ,only to begin Q40 in Italy) ( which was in the kit Lile vendetta) , is similar to SD6060(over) but not equal, I do not know that airfoil is exactly [sm=confused.gif],however thanks to your helps i want tested the SD6060 . (foam cnc to not spend a lot .......)

Exsused for my bad english

B.P.R.

I haven't piloted others Q40 models, but the Q40 Vendetta with which i flight (and my friends), fly truly much good !!!!

(The red Vendetta in immage , I had given To Paolo Mucedola (my Pylon's BIG FRIEND) for Phoenix 2007 .......but said to me have broken in landing [sm=crying.gif])

I think that i build a new Vendetta for Paolo M. with airfoil SD6060

Ciao...
Hope we see in Muncie F3D WC

I think the airfoil on Lyle's first Vendetta was an Eppler 374, but I'm not 100% sure.

B.P.R.

Thanks for your info......I see in profili 2.0 (italian software)

Ciao Paolo P.

Kevin Matney, B.P.R. is my big friend, you want a file .dat for SD 6060 ???

Kevin Matney

My Feedback: (1)

Send me a dfx of the pic you have and I can make a .dat file and cut the same airfoil showed in your pic.
I did a test of it and ran it in Profili 2.0 and the SD6060 was not close to the pic. It was only 70%

What is the wing plan for a Q40 Vendetta. I would like to place it in my files for is some one would like a wood wing to replace a broken wing later.
