High Performance Trimming

[Smurfmacaw]

I've been searching but have been unable to find a good primer on the why' and how's of trimming a modern high performance Thermal Duration sailplane for maximum performance.

Can anyone point me to a really good reference or two.

thanks

This is a nice article that Mike Smith wrote on the team web page. It is specifically about the Sharon, but it pertains to all thermal planes.

That's a great article.

Get the DVD, though (along with the F3 building clinic)..
