Aspect Laser “Wing-it”
Design Contest
2022
Note new in 2020 a 12% symmetrical section will be available. Same cord as the original and will compete together with the same rules.
Goal: To create a fun design and building event that allows modeler creativity. This event can be very simple from building a basic square body trainer type high wing model (Newer builders) or the contestant can design a more elaborate airframe to reflect a different model. Example P-51, F-86 etc… The contest “wing-it pack” will be available at Aspect Laser. In the Pack you will get laser cut ribs and sub leading edge set full scale plan sheet, PDF Pictures of the wing being built, and contests are in the AspectL Laser "Media" on the website.
Rules: Wing ribs need to be left alone and used in their entirety. You may vary the spar slot if needed. You cannot increase or decrease the thickness of the ribs or change their chord width. To allow different wing tips or wing designs there will be a wingspan maximum of 70” 56” is stock. No minimum span. It is OK to sheet the wing, add more wings, add more of you own ribs as long as all of the original, unmodified ribs are used. You cannot for example encompass the ribs in a bigger different rib.
The fuselage, tail, and control surfaces can be manipulated into any shape. Power plant can be any type: Electric, Glow, Fusion powered etc… You will need to design in a bomb drop mechanism (No fusion there please) for one of the contest events later.
