Default Healthy Margin

It's beautiful. But a margin of 0.46 without engines seems a bit unstable to me.


Solomoriah, in that particular view I move the wing fins forward and at 0 degrees so both fin patterns would be visible for you to see. The actual margin with an A3T-4 loaded is a healthy 1.60 margin with wings in rear location and at 90 degrees.

Also made a mistake on the previous parts list post. The balsa material in the Rocksim file is 1/16 ich material to get a margin of 1.60. Balsa material of 3/32 inch thick can also be used and only drops the margin down to 1.53 margin.

Thanks Again and Enjoy, JP
