Default Converting under cambered to flat bottom
Any comment on the idea of clam-shelling two of the wings to make a symmetrical, super fat airfoil? I am guessing he wants it to be more arobatic...
Dimensions of the resulting airfoil (approximate):
chord 11.5 in
~17% thickness
~30% high point

With CF spar and keeping the weight low, 500 sq inches, reduced dihedral..... ailerons.

Opinions?
