Repeat founder engineering and flying subscale VTOLs. On a quest to build full scale eVTOLs for personal flying.

O1 telling me how it is. Saying my current VTOL's foamie airfoil is basically flaming dog shit 😂 I will be using an airfoil shape built for the low Reynolds numbers (smaller scale and lower speeds) for subscale models. I should get 30 to 40% more lift over drag in my v0.2 build over the v0.1 airfoils and even close to 30% more L/D vs classic NACA 2412 or 4412 airfoils. Because endurance is proportional to L/D, this one change directly translates to up to 40% more range. That is INSANE
