RJ,
One of the interesting things about plane design is that sometimes the
"odd" design works better than the intended plane! So what you are asking
for is really an "engineer's" plane, not a flying plane.
What do I mean by that? Well take airfoils. Even if CNC machined and

This is a very interesting thread. While I am no expert, I have been chucking a
micro HLG most of this summer and would like to
put my humble opinion in.
I threw a javelin in high school and studied the physics of thowing. Obviously the
