Default RE: Ventral Fin

I'm not sure if there's a formula, but I'd say about a 1/4 to a 1/3 of the vertical stab total area (including rudder) would be sufficient. Just don't extend so far down that it would drag in the water, and you'd want it to be in keeping with the 30's style of the Monocoupe. Something like the one on my Cub would work, and look okay.
