Has any one heard of or tried using "flaperons" with a Dura-plane?
These designs are strong birds, resistent to hanger rash, should do OK in windy conditions (I think) however they fly - or at least land, faster than most .40 trainers. Perhaps flaperons would slow them down? In my opinion the best trainer on the market today in Sig's Kadat Senior - especially when powered by a 4 stoke motor. Unfortunately this fine model, with its low wingloading, is easily effected by wind.
Maybe a Dura-Plane w/ flaperons would be a rugged bird, not so easily effected by the wind, and with a slow landing speed. What do you think?
