I wonder if the Hangar ARF uses the laminar airfoil? It would be interesting if the wing fits my fuselage. It is possible to make just the rear turtle deck to make a B model.
The Harngar 9 airfoil is a SELIG designed specifically for low Reynolds numbers as found when flying our model airplanes. The scale laminar P-51 airfoil is a very poor performing airfoil on model airplanes as it requires high Reynolds numbers. Does your Bates Mustang use the laminar flow airfoil?
