I'm very keen of the the pure plank concept, like the one of Mike Whittaker, the, MW9 and Backstrom EP. But Im looking for a tractor Plank like the following bird
The BICh-20 is for the size and pilot position relative to the wing. This bird hd a tapered wing, and the plank has parallel LE and TE .
As you can note, the prop is relatively high , so the landing gear could be shorter too.
The targeted aspect ratio would be around 3.7...., still a LAR, but I didn't wanted to stick on to the LAR thread, as this one is solely dedicated to straight L/E PLANKS.
This is simplifying the construction, as the angles are 90deg, which are easy to build.
The best contribution for this is the MW9 but unfortunately for me it's a pusher, and Im looking for a sit on top tractor taildragger.
