Default RE: Build your own PBF (Pizza Box Flyer, Flying Pizza Box)

Dave, Thanks for the info. I saw in that 2002 posting that the disc was a little hard to fly - a possible solution on making the ele-vons/vators more slanted ason the attached pic ofthe Arup - but extend it all the way from the centre to where the aileron ends. It increases the area and distance fromcentre. Will let you knowhow it goes - oh, anotherPBF is under constuction,this one will be scaled to take a 46 Irvine - I just love these planes, they fly different but it is such fun. Has anybody tried to slope soar with a profiled one?

Cheers
