Peterson J-4 Javelin

[VinceC]

Once upon a time I made a model of the Peterson Javelin and just before Christmas last year, I was approached by a full size owner of one of these gliders asking me if I would consider creating a 3-view, as no accurate or suitable ones existed. The challenge was on and so here is the result, a bit radical in its' format, but a white glider on white paper was a bit bland.

Velly Intellesting Vince! Tell me, how effective was the spoiler system for turning/rolling the aircraft. Strangely enough I saw it way in the past and thought it would be an interesting machine. However the spoiler arrangements put me off.

The spoilers worked surprisingly well, but there is very little roll takes place
