Netheads, I have been following the discussion on the wing incidence & washout & found it very interesting. One thing, everyone has used the AS 5046 at the root & the AS 5045 at the tip. There has been no mention of the AS 5048, Why not & what characteristics would the AS 5048 give? & what i

Hi Robin; Well, from my standpoint, I have an existing KR-2 that uses the RAF-48 airfoil. The AS-5046 airfoil will fit the existing spars so that I won't have to replace them even though I will have to cut loose and raise my rear spar about 3/4" to match the new incidence angle of +1.75degrees

I forgot who said it but would like to run it by the Mark's and Larry's. Someone was using a 1.0 degree of washout instead of the 3.5... is this ok? He mentioned that it would bring the nose up a bit in flight. Just wanted to find out if it would make things better or worse? David Swanso
