[RCSE] slope ship question

2005-09-26 Thread Douglas, Brent
With Fall around the corner, I've been looking for a slope ship. I have some nice slope wings, but I want something more conventional looking - foamie or other. I've been considering something like a Mini-Nyx or a Prodij, but I was also looking at the 60 slope racer from Steve Drake. I'm really

One FUN design. Good suggestion. Just keep it light. I'd expect a loading of 8 would be a reasonable goal. Even less would be better if acheivable. Most 60 slope racers fly very well at low wing loadings. Better than what most would expect. Along with ballasted for big wind, too. Their wide

The FUN comes out at 23-25 ounces RTF unless you do something serious to the wings like bag full carbon under the sheeting. That of course would defeat the purpose of One Design. You are right though, they do fly in fairly light lift when kept light. gv -Original Message- From: Bill

To get an 8 ounce wing loading, you'll need a 20 ounce airframe, which is actually too light for One Design airframes. At 25 ounces it comes in at 10 ounces/ft.sq. At the MWSC, we fly with the 25-35 ounce rules so the FUN comes out right at the minimum. I did make one for myself that had some
