RE: 60
Soholingo,
Thanks for the links, I have never seen them before. Nice looking planes.
BMatthews,
I believe that I chaged the wings as you stated, I can see where those changes would make for a smoother airflow and a better load transfer while launching. See the attached drawing and let me know if I got you right.
Charliey,
Thanks, As stated it has not yet been built, but I would like to come in at a total weight of about 11.5 to 12 oz. My radio gear is not the lightest stuff out there, so maybe some more weight can be saved. As for figuring out the wing loading, what's the easist formula for doing that math? Like I said above, I like to draw, build and fly. But I'm changing the windows in my house and replacing the siding also, so not much building for awhile. The forcast for the next few days is rain, so I'd better get back to it.
