The A6 is pretty much a scaled down version of my DoublePenny pennyplane. The PP flies really well - just not for a very long time. I ran my A6 through the Hunt spreadsheet and it looked like it would do about 2/3 the time of a more typical A6. I'm hoping this a an error in the program!

Anyway, I can always build a smaller stab and longer boom for it. Then it would be like a mini-f1m.

Having the CG of the motor 3" from the nose plays havoc with the model's CG.

  Bill,
  Your A6 looks very interesting! Good luck with the tandem design. One of the
  things I like about A6 is the there is more freedom of design than in many of
  the other duration classes. Not all the planes look the same.

  And for the doubters out there it actually does fly!
