RE: Tsunami Build Thread
Ray,
much appreciated. With those measurements, I'll get the root and tip rib sorted out and then hand things over to Greg for him to loft the remaining ribs in Compufoil.
I got the stab drawn up last night too. Little by little I may just get the plan drafted up in CAD which will then allow us to have a short kit laser cut of we wish. Both a little 15 size Tsunami as well as a 60 size Tsunami appeal to me. I am actually reconsidering my 60 size scalup and thinking that it might be a little undersized. Derek actually had a full 6' (72") span in mind but it never made it to fruition. It's a design which has long wing and stab planform for its size.
A 72" Tsunami would be really cool. I would be inclined on going with an electric motor and retracts to keep the sleek look of the nose intact. An inverted pumped RE engine with pipe down the center of the fuse could be another interesting approach.
David.
