Does anyone on this list have the original coordinatrs to lay out the airfoil on the XL? If so, could you scan the table and e-mail it to me please. The drawings at CH601.org are for the form blocks and I want to lay out the complete as developed airfoil.

   

  Thank you.

That would be a combination of the nose rib, rear ribs and aileron/flap. Do you have the prints?

yes, I am XL#6406. I downloaded the plots for the form blocks and checked them against the prints after adding in the spear components and material wall thicknesses to the form block outlines.. As you know, the flaps are thicker than the basic airfoil - and I want to lay out the basic airfoil (at the root only).

As I recall having layed out the forms, the rear rib line becomes a straight line towards the rear.  If you are using a cad system maybe try placing the radius of the rear flap/aileron at the correct distance/orentation from the spar and join it to the rear ribs using straight lines to that radius in 3D space.



I know nothing about designing airfoils so. . . FWIW

do not archive



Thanks for the suggestion Ron. This need is for completely different reason. Does anyone know if the coordinates for that airfoil are in Ribletts book? I hate to spend $20 for something that I believe I already paid ZAC for...
