So I had a visit from the inspiration fairy over the weekend and finally got stuck into the kit I've had from Mike Luszcz for over a year.
The canard is based on a strip of 1/8th (5/32) ply. Can some one tell me whether I should build it up by laminate other bits of ply to the top side onnly or symmetrically about the base strip?
Should I put some carbon tubes into it to make it rigid?
I'm also thinking of shaping it as an upside down aerofoil to give it down force as opposed to lift.
Any advice will be much appreciated even pointing me in the directions of somepiccies as to how it's done would be even better.
Cheers
Bob
