Hi Nat,

 

Thank you for the good response!

1 & 2 don't carry my preference, 2 for the reason you mention yourself, #1
because I can't move that by any significance.

 

But #3 looks promising but, I don't understand what it means, can you please
explain?

 

Thx!!

 

Patrick

Patrick,

There are three things you can do to reduce roll couple:

     1. Lower the vertical CG

     2. Reduce the wing incidence ( a lot ). This may be an 

         undesirable trade-off, because it will have more of a

         tendency to go to the gear in yaw

     3. "Slaunch" the wing tips. This is very effective due to

         the leverage. You may be able to tape on foam tips 

         for a test.

         Give me a report.
