Air extractor for sustainer and motor gliders?
Am Dienstag, 25. August 2015 22:49:47 UTC+2 schrieb David Hirst:
Does it improve venting? Yes. Does it improve performance? I have no way to measure that. You could always tape the vents up for a "control" flight, compared against another glider of similar performance, and then un-tape them and repeat the flight. Then repeat the whole exercise 5 times in still air for statistical validity. I'm in a cT. Any pictures you can post of your modifications? Cheers DH Well, I don't spend time on measuring things like that. Too much fun to just go XC through the Alps ;-) I don't know how to post pictures, but just send me a private mail. Google my name (Bert Willing) and Tango-Whisky. Bert Ventus cM TW
