Hi All,
I'm looking to scratch build a Microlight/ ultralight that has the best forward visibility, flies slow and if internal combustion engine powered then as quiet as possible. (ultimately I will go to electric power, but one thing at a time to avoid over complicating matters)
I would expect to hybridise the best of whats already 'out there'
The VJ 23 probably has the best potential for the wing, 3 axis aerodynamic controls, modified with possibly slotted fowler flaps and even leading edge slots. The idea being to reduce the stall speed as low as possible.
Any ideas out there ?
Guys, what happened to the royalty free plans data base please ??

My best to you all
