Default Stingray Construction

Kelly. The speedbrake on the bottom made a 400ft or less possible. With out it the stringray would get 5 to 10 feet off the deck and fly under no power for 100 yards or better. I could never did stall it. You need alot of deflection on your elevator to rotate with 2 degrees up in the wings. You know some people want to put a P80 or Mercury on one. Buy doing this you raise the wingloading and 2 or more pounds of thrust at a idle. Make the Stringray a handfull on landings. The PST 600 makes a very nice package for the stringray, or simimular 12 lb turnine.
