[RCSE] new hlg design idea?

2001-01-22 Thread Clifford Schwinger
I just purchased a bunch of free flight hand launch glider kits from Stan Buddenbohm - a well known ffhlg designer and pilot. With my kits he enclosed a photo of a hand launched glider he called a "folder". The wings on this thing are tucked in during launch and upon transition the wings "unfold".

I have an edge and use a steel wing rod as mentioned by Marc Gellart. I think it adds about 10 oz. To set up, I put the plane on my balance stand found the cg with normal flying, marked it, put in the steel rod, (it will move the cg forward) add weight to tail via a small lead plate, trim the
