Possible *fabric-covered wing* B/G
Hello All,
Below are links to information about the Airglider 40, a 40 cm (16") wing span HLG (Hand-Launched Glider) of "pod-and-boom" design that has a "V"-tail and spinnaker cloth-covered wings and tail surfaces. It might make a good pop pod boost-glider. Here are the links: http://scientificsonline.com/produc...hcd2=1240976386 http://www.nextag.com/airglider-40/products-html http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&ke...sl_72wm10cqmu_e I hope this information will be helpful.

It LOOKS cool... I'm just a little concerned about the strings going from wing tip to wing tip to hold the dihedral. |

I had thought about that too. If the Airglider 40's wing bracing lines pass directly from wingtip-to-wingtip and are not connected to any central "mast" as on the Airglider 60 (it's hard to tell from the Airglider 40 images), the lines should be high enough above the motor's thrust line to not be a problem.
