Default RE: SSC design parameters?

CombatPigg,
You might go to www.texascombat.com , www.georgiacombat.com , www.hattrickrc.com , www.jkaerotech.com for info on SSC warbirds. You can find info on open style at www.downhomerc.com and www.tufflight.com

The design parameters I see used most often for SSC Warbirds is:
Fuse foam length (back of spinner to elevator hinge line) 29-31"
Overall fuse height - 5"-6"
Wing saddle 7" back from rear of spinner.

The airfoils vary. Many are using the E203, I've had good success with the Lee Liddle sorta Clark Y airfoil. The RC Combat web site has a motherlode of data at www.rccombat.com

Good luck.
