I agree… and it’s an important factor, aesthetically. Some otherwise beautiful aircraft are ruined by having an unattractive tail-form. The KIS TR- series is an example.
My main goal was to have effective controls at very low speeds. And the beauty of making it up as I went along is I got to make it as nice to my eye as well
I’m sure you plan to avoid yucky weather but in case you encounter rain, have you designed means for minimizing rain into the carburetor, as part of that great looking induction inlet?
The air filter will restrict a lot of water from getting in to the carburettor. And if the weather gets too wet, I will only need a small area to land and ride it out. My days of flying around in bad weather are over I reckon
Thanks for another informative and interesting video Don. It's exciting to see how well it's coming together and a reflection of your craftmanship. 👌
Thanks mate, I appreciate that
I absolutely LOVE the way your tail group turned out. It really looks great! Round tails look sooooo much better than swept back tails!
Thanks mate. Curved metal is where it’s at!
