Hey guys,
I know we talked about wings before after Jerry's article in RCBM, but I had an idea in my head while working on my rigger and want to know if it is worth trying or if anyone else has tried it.
Here goes - on the rear of the Eagle SG's there are "winglets" and the SG instructions stress the importance of having them at the correct angle. this winglet is not very wide but is reasonably long. Could this style of winglet be mounted to the sides of the cowl on a tunnel and how long should they be. I think about 1 inch would be wide enough. This type of wing would not produce much drag and by being narrow would be less likely to act like a sail if the trim got outta shape.
Any idea's, thoughts, criticism's????
Tim.
