how to make semi elliptical wing for flat bottom wing
I have been flying my Eagle 2 for the past two years and really love to fly it. However my wing got trashed on the ground, and I would like to rebuild it but with semi elliptical wings in stead of just the flat bottom. Anyone have an Idea how to design one without causing the plane to be unstable? the cord is 11.5/8" and it has a 63" span. around 750 sq inches weight around 5.5 Lbs.
Thanks
Larry

Sounds about like a 4*60 wing. You have any buddies with one? You could get a kit plan from them & just copy it.

You must mean semi-symmetrical? Eliptical usually refers to a semi circle type of wing TIP, not the rib shape.
