Default Doodles...Calibrate


Filled in WingSpan and GrossWeight from Vans web site.
IIRC, Van uses a 23012 airfoil?
If so, the 12% stays, and I'd guess CLmax of about 1.3.

Wing Chord?
Spar cap materials?



Span [ft] [ 28] Span Load [lb/ft] [calc]
Area [sqft] [ -- ] Area Load [lb/sqft] [calc]
Chord root [ft] [ ? ] RN root [mil] [calc]
Chord tip [ft] [ ? ] RN tip [mil] [calc]
Chord MAC [ft] [calc] RN mean [mil] [calc]
Aspect [#] [calc] Max CL [#.##] [ ?.??]

Gross Wgt [lb] [1600] Stall Speed [mph] [calc]
Design G's [#] [ ? ]

Wing Thick[%chord] [12%?] Spar Compr [psi] [ ?? ]
Cap Width [in] [ ? ] Spar Shear [psi] [ ?? ]


Any takers?
