V-Tail for Pumping - Rapid Prototyping

This v-shaped stabi has been in my head for quite a while already: 240 mm span, 82 sqcm area, GOE599 profile at -2deg AOA.It feels similar to pumping without a stabilizer but it's a more reactive."6/10 would not build again 😅 but it paved the way for an improved Gen2" is what I've said in the beginning but it has actually become one of my favorite stabs :)Here are the STLs:WingMold topMold bottom...

Axis Wing Set - Copying Hydrofoils

After dozens of severe impacts it was about time to replace my old home-made 1150 Axis front wing and my 460 back wing with a new pair.I've decided to go for ECC eSpread275CHT carbon fiber deck layer because it looks awesome 💪 For making the wings I re-used my old molds of the original 1150 and 460 Axis wings shown in the pic below.The molds are not really our best engineering effort (there are s...

Having a good level of experience in CATIA and AutoCAD under my belt I believe that scripted CAD file generation with some polishing in a UI CAD program is the fastest and most efficient way to go for hydrofoils. It makes the import of airfoil shapes from sources like airfoiltools or the U...
