On this note....Question for Mr Drela, or any of the
aero guys out there...

I believe MH's study was geared more towards F3B and
higher performance flying, and he came up with a
figure of 3%. So let's assume, at TD speeds... linkage
hanging out the bottom adds 2% drag to the airframe.

If our model has a 15/1 LD, does this now translate
directly to a 15/1.02 LD? 

What does this really mean to the performance of our
model? And what is gained in real world performance by
going completely internal?

Thx,

D
