RE: C-130 updates
O.k. I've decided to split the wing between the ail. and the outboard flap. Why? A couple of reasons. 1. Able to transport the center section on my vans wing rack. (It was too short span wise otherwise) 2. Now doing so, I can make the third flap operational. Planning on a torque tube system for the 6 flap sections on one strong heavy duty servo in the center. I just could'nt see myself having 10 to 12 servos in the wing.
I know the flaps are not needed or even the outboard flaps, because of how well the c-160 model flys. But anyway, preliminary calculations are showing me to use 15 deg. half flaps and 30 deg. full flaps. +0 degrees -5 deg. (in other words no more than 30deg.)
