RE: Cold Duck - Build
View of the tail parts with the bass wood trailing edges installed and more shaping work completed. The elevators and rudder have been tapered down to the 1/8” X 1/16” trailing edge.
The original Cold Duck had ailerons that were added to the wing trailing edge similar to the way the Kaos ailerons were designed. The new Cold Duck will have ailerons that are a continuation of the airfoil shape like my Howard Engineering Kwik Fli III taper wing has. To that end, I ordered a set of Howard Engineering Kwik Fli III taper wing ailerons and they can be seen at the top of the image. They are 1 ½” wide and will have 1/8” X1/16” bass wood trailing edge added. I should have my Dynamic Balsa shipment soon with my balsa and foam wing core.
