There is apparently an excellent book around called 'Model Aircraft Aerodynamics' which I hope to locate one of these days myself.


That's a nice little book. It was first published in 1978. I bought the second edition in 1992 pictured below. They still sell it and it's up to the fourth edition now. Here's a link to it on Amazon.
