![]() I have this problem with my Genesis 2 (both water and "other" fluids). Does this come from a "venturi" effect of air leaking from Horz/Vert Stab Junction or poor Rudder Sealing? *It amazes me how much gets sucked back into fuselage. *(Genesis has VERY short fuselage) Another Genesis owner (DK) has experimented with an exit duct out the fuse hatch over wings. ... comments Don??? Curt - 95 I have had an air outlet on my Genesis2 for several years. It was modeled after the outlet on DB's ASW-22. It seems to work very well. Curt is correct that on a Genesis 2, dumped water ballast will enter the fuselage thru the fairings over the rudder horns. These fairings are suppose to be the air outlets. I have taken photos of that area with tufts taped around the fairings. And indeed the tufts turn and are sucked into the "outlets". Don (DK) |
