Tim, you trying out something funny for the design contest?!
I played with a forward swept design. I can't remember specifics, but the pic should tell alot. It flew, but my wing joining technique needed some help. I was still fairly new to the hobby at this point and wanted to play with different configurations.
There was a little buzz and people running for the hills when they thought I was going to fly it. After handing the transmitter to an experienced guy they came back. I'll be getting back to it and finishing the second one. (started it three years ago...) Actually, this might make a good 1/2a plane. The light wing loading would help with the wing flex that might have been a problem. hmmm.... Well, not for the design contest. I'm going to do the RV-9.

hmmm... can't get the pic to upload. Keeps saying "error saving file to disk". I'll try from my home pc after work
