bexrbetter Posted June 21, 2023 Share 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 ...

It looks like a NACA 23013. 3 hours ago, Arron25 said: Hi Bex, have you spoken to Helmut? 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted June 23, 2023 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
