Algebra glider

Can anybody tell me the major differences (other than wingspan) between the 2.5m abd the 3/4m versions?

Do they use the same fuz?
What is the size increase in the rudder and elevator areas?

Thanks for any help

I have old documents from Dave Edmonds where is is said that the polyester fuse is the same. I looks like, that only the Wings are different.

All the algebra series use the same Fuselage.(Fibreglass mat)I am not sure about the Fin/Tail area changes,but I would guess they increase in approx proportion to the increase in wing area.I dont think they would be too critical. The Algebra is/was quite forgiving.Having said that,I think the 2.5 and 3.0m version were the same .Tail and fin were noticeabily enlarged on the 5m version however.Nice gentlemans horseless flying machine!

Thanks guys,

Can now think about making a bigger set of wings for the algebra

Dont go overboard on the span.Although Dick E produced a 4m version,I think it was 'pushing the envelope a' bit .I would reckon on about 3.3m as the max span.

PS Ive just read my original post.For 5m,read 4m! sorry.A 5m Algebra! Blimey!
