home/ history/ 2005/ april/ 20050407 Building a depron foam wingLong planned, finally started: a new wingUsing a JT-88 airfoil, supposed to produce high lift at low speed. The straights in the profile help when applying pressure on the wing. This is only one half of the wing. Wingspan will be 130cm. I am not sure how to connect the two wing halves. On the fuselage glueing the carbon tubes together with plywood worked best. I will make sure that the main carbon tube of the second wing is not going to be at the same location so I can X them in the center section The wing will have ailerons / flaperons Conclusion: this attempt to build a wing is much more promising than the last one
