Yes they do work. I have a set of full flying V-tails on my class A/B
electric sailplane. The surfaces are supported by a single
No question full fling V tail could be done. No question that it would be a
major engineering challenge to keep it light, super strong, slop free,
especially a ruddervator version. There just isn't a lot of room at that end
of most fuselages for the kind of hardware that would make it work. No

I added a CAD page to my website with some of my drawings
and a request for contribution of soaring related drawings. I was
hoping to build a downloadable soaring CAD library.
It was a huge flop so I took it down. A few guys sent drawings
of sevros and wing planforms. Very disappointing.
I just started up a page to access my planform modeling spreadsheet.
It is saved in Excel version 3.0. There are only minor changes compared to the
version that was available on my previous site. I did find an empirical formula
for predicting control surface effects. There's a small input box
It is simple, I had a highly modified gentle lady with HUGE full flying
V tails. I had a v shaped music wire in the tail section and the tail
surfaces had brass tubing in them at around 28% from the LE.
The horns stood straight up and the pushrods (Ti welding rod)
exited the fuselage about 3" in
I'm flying into Oakland tomorrow (FRIDAY) for a conference, and may have
some time after I arrive to go sloping (AFTERNOON). What's gonna be working
tomorrow and how do I get there?? The nearer it is to the Oakland airport
and or Mills College, the more likely it is that I'll be able to fly, but
Personally, I dislike the Goop and Goo's. They take forever to harden and make
a mess! I use hot melt glue or epoxy exclusively for all foamies.

1) Higher cost.

If you check Branwell McClory's comments on the multiplex site, he
mentions that when he converted to Digital servos, his current consumption
went down...

Mr Addict G,
Couple of answers to your questions.
1 thing though - There are several ways to make a foam core molded wing
(like the Victor) so this is just one way!!!
The common way to make a foam core molded wing is to 1st make a female
2 part mold for the wing. this is the same
