This is just a wing experiment. After examining Bogdanx's F4U airfoil I was inspired to see if I could even build something similar. And holy crap its hard. I spent so long trying to make the wing flush and smooth. It may not be perfect but this is my very first attempt at making a proper professional airfoil. It doesn't generate lift or anything like that I was just experimenting to see how hard designing a simple airfoil would be. And I found out hard it is. The ailerons don't move perfectly smooth but they do work. It also has functional flaps if you use VTOLdown. So this creation was just a proof of concept basically. Proofing that I can build an airfoil. Now its just improving the smoothness, adding functionality and other details that would make this professional. I almost guarantee that I will never build an aircraft with this airfoil. Just an experiment. If anyone has any tips or suggestions please leave them in the comments down below. Thank you.

@Hedero thanks!
Sure thing bud. Just make sure to credit me in the desc.@Notnoob1000
Hi! Could I use this for a project i have in mind? If not, that’s fine!
Thank you.@lastv801
noice
Awesome! But BogdanX is where this whole thing came from.@JolyLoly
@BogdanX Can you make post about making custom control surfaces? Kinda guide
Pretty cool! You inspired me!
Yea for beginners such as me its really difficult. I had to keep looking at Bogdan's airfoil on his corsair to see how he did it.@Alta2809
Ok. Thanks for the advice and support. I might practice here and there a little with proper airfoil. And I'll see about actually building an aircraft using it someday. But thanks again for the help.@BogdanX
This is so sick! I really want to try to do this but I can’t, I don’t have the time at the moment. @Hedero
Yea this was made on my iPad mini 5. If I wanted to do serious work I would upload it from my iPad and download it on my computer and edit the properties.@BogdanX
