pedalpower av read thru your comment n all i can tell you is that sometimes it takes one own effort without any much consultations to succeed in something especially these science related projects...i prefer you work it out practically n rely on the outcomes of your project to reason out the...
is there any simple approach on to getting the leading edge radius of an airfoil model of say chord of 45cm and maximum thickness of 8cm with the point of max thickness being 1/4 of chord:confused :
hey sorry never noticed my text-speak was just trying to explain ma unverified ideas.currently am working on a design model of both the rotor and coaxial design maybe when am through will email you the details...thanks for the NASA TM i got some mean full points
[/B]
yeah that way i agree with u coz we need balance weights like in the case of rc types...and that makes it odd too but there are odds on every principle...
i never said 'a trailing edge flap' what i tried to put across was on the design of the blades as in we all know flaps are used at low speeds n increase the lift drag ratio at a certain predetermined settings so basically i thought according to ma research on former designs n with fact that...
that exactly my question to the guy who dismissed my idea of coaxial rotors...but looking at stability part and the weight saved plus the efficiency of having two sets of blades which increases the solidity i think coaxial would save tha day since by the rules there is provision for not more...
when you talk of all this does it end up to energy storing devices which are illegal by the rules...according to me if the fixed wing was easily achieved why don't we just make these rotors just like a wing but not fixed i.e by incorporating an extended flap like trailing edge n with a built in...
