I'm not aware of this feature of compufoil, but I only have the basic version.
The angle of attack (AOA) of a wing is its angle to the freestream. If you want your fuz to line up parallel with the freestream (and you probably do) while the wing is at x degrees to the freestream then set the wing at x degrees to the fuz. Good luck. Anyone who bags a wing has earned it. Jeb. P.S. I'm an amateur. Any aerodynamic advice or comment by me may be hazardous or, even worse, wrong. --- Steve Gwilliam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am building a slope plane.
