agreed. The 'stock' CD seems to have a lot of limitations though the basic concept is good. Seems like discussion of modifications, increasing wing strength for heavier pilots and alternate, though similar concepts, would be welcome -- certainly by me. My goal would be to end up with something in the spirit of the CD, if not a direct rev A.







Personally I don't have a problem at all discussing other designs here. There aren't that many people here actually building a CD, and I'm sure that most are here because they are interested in gliders that fit in the microlift category and how they compare. I went to all the trouble to make leading edge molds because there is a very good chance I will be building another CD, but I will use the experience from building this one, flying impressions after I have it done, and ideas from other designs like the Alatus to maybe make some kind of CD hybrid.

Thanks for posting the link to the Alatus. I wasn't aware of that design.
