RE: Miss Wind 50 Trimming Problems
Usually, the upper wing has a little play. Use that to lock it in the most positive incidence as possible. The correct CG is located just where the servo cables comes out the upper wing.

RE: Xoar Wood PJH-E F3A Electric Propellors
So, it seems like no one uses the Xoar props in pattern. So, I presume nobody is able to tell me how much could be safe to turn an electric Xoar prop on an OS gt33.... or ar least what's their rpm safe limit.

RE: aerobatic full scale airfoil
Ok, it's all clear to me.. The problem is that if I want an Extra that looks like an Extra, there are no shortcuts available. If the flight qualities will override the pleasure of the look, I could always decide to have a beautiful gate guardian in front of my house...

Thanks for the info, Mithrandir. I'm aware of what I'm going through, but I definitely want to take this chance, because I really want a true scale model. Ps: I'm keeping on thinking about me living in Adelanto for that job..... not really a piece of cake, I suppose ;-)

RE: aerofoil for Extra 300
Now, all I have to do is to make it and see what happens. Anyway, the fuselage is designed to accept any kind of airfoil, if it will be a dog, I can always change it. Spars and ribs construction. It's a superslow kind of building, since I have to make everything from zero, included the carbon fuselage. And my spare time is little.

RE: aerofoil for Extra 300
The reflex camber on the Sukhoi arise from its wing structure: elliptical leading edge, then straigth to the rear spar. Then again straigth to the trailing edge. No complicated calculations here too.... I confirm too the geometrical driven airfoil of the Extra . Nothing to compare to "calculated" or previously known airfoils.
