bexrbetter Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 The builder of the Foxcon Terrier 100 wings and I were in contact, but many years have passed as well as a few whiskeys, and I can't remember who it was, sorry. Could someone point me in the right direction, or could the culprit please PM me? Basically I want to know what airfoil it is, I plotted it but can't find an exact match, and also send you the CAD file of the wing that I am doing now (hence why i want to know what airfoil it is). The skin had some handling damage requiring a patch, so while the skin was off I thought I would get it all into CAD This is the basic plot ...

Not yet, but he didn't build the wings as I had been chatting with the person who did, pretty sure he is a member here.

Nev If it's not a NACA 23013 (13% thickness of chord length), then it's certainly similar, so you can research it's benefits or not from there .. FWIW most of Vans RVs use a NACA 23013.5 (13.5% thickness) Edited June 22, 2023 by bexrbetter added info 2
facthunter Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 That's not the same as the one previously shown. Nev

facthunter Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 I think the Fisher Horizon 2 Had a GAW 3 section "Tamed " by fixed LE slats and slotted ailerons and flaps. Nev

Email sent, probably get booted for my last reply to the ignorant xenophobe, rather not be in a forum that tolerates that shite, so see you guys elsewhere. Good luck in the soup. 1
