David,

make sure you put an anhedral stab on it...

that'll get the juices flowing. Oh... and call it the ''Tauruyota build thread''

Shouldn't have done that... me bad.

David.
David,

In your thread: “Scaled Tiporare plans” I read you are interested in anhedral stabs just as you mentioned in the post.

Anhedral:

Here's a good question for designers. In fact it would be a good question for Dick and Dave Brown as they made many tests with the Tipo and anhedral angles. People flying the 60 size here might have some comments too (e.g., 8178). Hanno Prettner would also be a good person to ask . It'd be interesting to hear their thoughts on angles for the reduced scales.

Shortened, TF

Keep us posted! David.


I nearly always did fly with own design airplanes and already in 1975 /1980 I did fly with anhedral stabs.
I still have my 2 meter contest glider of that period, see the pictures.
If you are interested in a detailed description, let me know, because it is not really “on topic” and not pattern.
