RE: RE: basic aerodynamics
Dick,
I too would like to see some examples of these very low wing loading models with very high power loading where CG is no longer so important. I think the trouble most of us are having with your statements is the fact that, regardless of the magnitudes of the forces involved, they all still must sum correctly to keep the model in the correct attitude. The laws of physics still apply.
We had this discussion months ago and we understand that as the model gets lighter it can fly slower... giving the pilot more time to respond... but that does not equate to an insignificance of CG. I told you of my indoor rubber models with miniscule wing loadings and lots of power (relative to weight). If the CG is wrong on those, they will not fly.
