RE: V-tail, how to size it?
Paul,
You might want to check out the July 2002 issue of Quiet Flyer. They have a great article reviewing the "V" tail.
I've used this on both Sail as well as power. My first conversion was a Tower Hobby 40 trainer. I converted it from a tricycle to conventional landing gear and a conventional tail to a "V". I used a mechanical mixer and a low tech 4 channel non mixing, non computer radio... It was my first try and it was terrific. I'm in the process of converting a Genesis Sail from a "T" tail to a "V" . A lot more difficult then the trainer and I'll need a more advanced radio...
Regards,
Rono
