The title should sum the idea up...
My flying wing aerodynamics are proving to be tricky.
I'm also a wee bit low on flying hours.
So, perhaps, I should start with something with known passable flying qualities.
After looking at a bunch of planes, the Hurricane seems to have a lot going for it.
Decent plane to fly, good ground handling. Thick wing.
Looks amenable to being flat wrapped in coroplast.
Some initial researxh suggests the pilot cg is about 18" behind the cg full size. So I may need to move the cockpit a little. Otherwise, I think externally it will scale really well.
What do you think of a 2/3 Hurricane 103?
