Don't know if this is the right spot for this question. I'm building a plane using my old one as a plan, so I'm cloning it.
I have the fuselage about done. I'm on to the ribs, they are Al tube. I wanted to make sure I did them right. So I asked the famliy
that I got the plane from, what rib airfoil did they use. They said oh Grampa just drew out on the floor of the shop, and that is how
the shape came about. Hmm I'm not a designer so I would like some help, if any of you are inclined to.
I have an old rib cut off the wreck. Where can I get some help/advise on ribs? I want to be sure I have good stall an flight characteristics.
And if I can improve them so much the better. 100mph airplane. If some thing should be changed now is the time.
thanks Samyguy
