Hi:
I like the elegant design of a flying wing, been flying a Zagi 400X.
What is the word on a flying-wing glider (like a Zagi) VS
conventional-glider (wing, fuse, tail)? Has anyone seen or flown
a flying wing glider, past or present? I've seen these big
conventional-glider ships, they

I've heard that but I don't see it. I flew a flying wing in TD
Doubtful you'll never see one for either of these
tasks. You can't set them up to launch effectively.

if anyone on the list has any direct experience with the use of tailless
sailplanes for F3J or F3B.
The comments that I've been told regarding tailless wings for thermal flying
is that the performance is reasonably good. The Tailless performance is
quite doable and is being perfected.
However,
I don't know, I launch mine from a winch.
I use my xc winch which has 2500' of line
and get good high launches.

Hi all,

Without going into this too much, the best link I have for flying wings
is www.aerodesign.de - hint, it's in German.
Good list of ships used for F3J/B applications - also some great
looking
electric flying wing designs. I tried one of the constant

I've heard that but I don't see it. I flew a flying wing in TD contests
for several years and never had any real problems with knowing
I may be opening up a bag of worms here, but I have been interested in doing
some experimenting with plank type flying wings. I have flown a few powered
versions and have been inpressed. I have built and flown wonders, Simitars
and some home brew things. Anyone out there have any
