Centrifugal force maneuverability

Article Abstract:

Model airplanes' aerobatic capabilities can be enhanced by understanding how centrifugal force (CF) affects maneuverability. CF's effects on horizontal turns, location of center of gravity, lifting tails, tandem wings, canards, three-surface designs and inverted flight are explained.

High-lift devices & drag reduction

Article Abstract:

Airplanes can be made smaller, lighter and quicker with a wider range of speeds with high-lift devices and drag reduction techniques. Flaps and careful drag reduction add strength and capability to new designs, such as the 'Lancairs, 'Glassairs,' 'Swift Lightning' and 'Pulsars.'
