True, my favorite sloper is my CR Renegade with an RG15 wing, it's lasted me 8 years and still going without too much damage. You might look at the 6063 airfoil, I've cut a couple sets of cores for the 6063 and bagged one of them. I'd like to get some templates to cut a RG15 too. I like the airfoil. -----Original Message----- From: Brett Jaffee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 6:59 PM To: Tripp Meister Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've always thought the Art Hobby stuff looked nice, but everything they make seems to have a hand launch airfoil. Not that I'm saying they fly bad on the slope, but it'd be nice if they made something with an RG-15 or something.
