Hey guys!
Currently working on the design for a carbon fibre build. I love super cubs and bush planes, so its going to based around a cub. But not exactly scale. I'm looking to go full on STOL custom design.
Going to be spending most of the time working in CAD until the design is finalized, then hopefully I can build it!
Its all an experiment, I know what I'm doing in CAD but this will test my skills, and hopefully I can pick some up on the way.
Hope you guys enjoy!
So I started by choosing an airfoil, I have chosen USA-35B which was an original cub airfoil, and should work well.
I taught myself how to import points and use them to create a profile. (I am using durafly tundra for my scale.)
From there, I came up with some flap and aileron profiles.
The flap profile is going to be a double slot flap for maximum STOL awesomeness. This is unless it all gets too hard, then I can just use the aileron profile. Hopefully not though. I think I can get it to work.
The profiles were created using some pretty intense CAD methods to make sure if I want to change them in the future I can easily.
Let me know what you guys think!
