[NSRCA-discussion] Thick trailing edges

[Peter Pennisi]

How effective are thick trailing edges in softening up the feel of a surface
around neutral?  Is it a fad or does it actually work.

I am putting together my second model with composite wings which have very
thin trailing edges (Comp-ARF -IMPACT). I have never been really comfortable
with the feel on my first model. I am thinking of removing some of the rear
wing to increase the thickness of the trailing edge (Should not be too
difficult - only concern will be if ailerons will be large enough to force a
decent snap)

The model came at the right price so it was always destined as a test bed to
try out some ideas.
