MMC3 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Definitely liking the styling was there any science behind the wing or just what looked right? The first picture has some of the side plates above the top of the wing and the later ones are level at the back of the wing, would having the side plates 15mm or so higher than the wing help make it work better? well the wing was one strip of aluminium with a rc lexan wing on top. The distance from the tip to the strip was 10mm but the lexan was way too flexible so I have put a fold in the aluminium at the back edge now. I put thought in to the dimensions of the hole thing but nothing proper math was used. So instead I made the wing adjustable by the two slots that each strut has.

MMC3 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Just so you know the 2s world record is 119mph do you think I have a shot at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieman5 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 TBH im going to say no. That speed was set with a very slick dragster at a much better location than we have. IMO just stick with 4s and try and top the 100mph mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 All you have to do is go over 101.2 to get into the top ten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
