Description

The Soartech volumes from the the 1990s remain the definitive reference for model soaring flight, and rarely turn up on the used market. If you have any interest in maximizing efficiency of your sailplanes, you need this authoritative reference in your library. We were lucky enough to find a few copies of volume 10, published in September 1993. There will be no more available once these are gone. Articles in this volume include an exhaustive treatise on molded fiberglass construction, eyesight and soaring, stability and control calculations, a thorough analysis of the Selig S-4233 airfoil as it applies to soaring flight, airfoils for aerobatic sailplanes, launching with an electric winch, downwash on tail surfaces, optimizing flying wing planforms and more.
