RE: I need help locating CG on straight flying wing
It is refreshing to ask a question and get straight educated answers. I frequent another site related to Subaru performance, and replies range from guesses to smart arse comments.
Tall Paul, I had no idea it was PJB, You changed your handle. You sent me a 3D drawing of an FP-40 for my Profile design some time back. I went to your link, figured it out and LMAO.
Thanks for the info Herb, I knew nothing about needing reflex (except that mine are slow).
Do you guys think 3/32" reflex in the elevons?
Should I put some thrust in the motor? Right now it is parallel with the wing center line on the horizontal. Should I tilt the prop (rear) up a degree or two?
I like the Diamond Delta Rendering. Seems like a cross between a PBF and a FloppyDisk. What if you changed the hinge line at the center of the wings, so that the elevons were like 4" at the root, and 1" at the tip?> Would that be enough to offset the angle of the control?
Thanks
Rich
