Delta Darter MkIV

9.0 years ago
This is an updated version of a delta wing jet with canards that I posted previously. In this iteration, the canards are now fully mobile, with control surfaces replaced with rotators for the entire canard. The net result is a much more responsive flight model and a larger envelope for controlled flight. This is my first attempt at a rotator adjustable wing that hasn't been part of a VTOL project.
