Thanks so much, you all, that's very helpful.
Also, if you ever get a chance go up for a ride and
notice how agile and strong a flexwing trike is. No
pulleys, cables, bellhorns, rigging headaches etc.
normally associated with conventional control surfaces
to worry about. Flexwings can effortlessly out turn and
out climb their aileron, rudder and elevator-equipped
counterparts and since it's a flexwing, the wing, not
your butt, takes the brunt of the punishment in turbulence.
It's a glass smooth, magic carpet ride. For more info,
