Default RE: Forward Swept Wing?

Hello,

In the late 80s there was a design called "Sweepee", by Sanjay Dahl, in AMA magazine. The construction article can be found online in the AMA website. It is a forward swept wing canard. Looks very unusual. Great flying characteristics, except no stall so no spin. I have built probably 6 of these from scratch. Make certain the CG is correct and you will have a lot of fun. A lot of people will just plain stop what they re doing to see it fly.
It uses a .40 to .60. Any questions feel free to email me.
