I am researching the Falconar F-11, either the A or the E model. I am uncomfortable with the folding wing idea, just because it is another mechanism to break down, and could be a bit heavy. My questions are: are there drawings for building the wing without the wing hinge; is the O-200 with a C-90 cam a good engine for this plane, and how does it compare tho the Emeraude. I know the F-11 and the Emeraude are pretty different, but which one takes longer to build, which one has more baggage which one has better ground-handling. I like the looks of the Emeraude, but have heard that the wings take a million years to build and that the highest point of French aviation was when Bleriot crossed the Channel.
