So does my 4 lbs Mongojet wing, which easily breaks a normal combat wing in two due to its superior speed and inertia :-)! Best suggestions as yet are split elevons, or brake chute - the former by using two elevons per side in crow position.

If you hinge them on the leading edge, you could have barn-door-like flaps open top and bottom. Upon ground contact, the bottom one could just fold up. (spring instead of a wire arm tot he servo) . What about reverse thrust of a moderate amount out of the fan? RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send subscribe and unsubscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
