Spaced

With regard to the area of the V-tail my method of deciding how big to make it was not exactly 'scientific'. I simply ensured that when viewing the tail from the side, the area that was visible matched the visible area of the conventional fin. Same went for the horizontal stab when viewed from above. Needless to say the overal result of this is that the v-tail is physically larger than a standard tail. Were my new gyro having only a single rotor system I would be aiming for a disc loading of around 3.5 oz/sq.ft. With a two blade co-axial rotor do I half this figure ??
This loading figure is based on my other small gyros that always end up around 3.5 - 4 oz/sq.ft.

Rotor diameter will be 32" on my new design with power suplied from a Hornet .09 with a 7x4 prop.
