Subject: Legacy wing tips test flown

Here are the details of the new wing tips we test flew last week on N27RM, along with pictures   http://www.lancaironline.net/pix/brice   . When Peter took N27RM up for the first time, we did not have the lenses installed, and Peter noticed no unusual flying characteristics whatsoever without the lenses installed.  When I flew N27RM for the first time, we had the lenses on.

 

The pictures show ugly screws with washers protruding into the slipstream, this is a prototype lens, and we made it much too thin just to check out the fit.

 

We will soon (hopefully this week) pull thicker lenses from the mold, which will be much thicker material to countersink the screw heads and have a much better looking installation.

 

Tips and lenses are available, contact either myself or aerodynamicsllc@yahoo.com  for details, you’ll love em! (they sure look better than what we had before, and I am sure they added to my performance in my last post about my first few flights).
