it will be a resin infusion carbon wing, laminated over a CAD milled core out of a polyurethane (140kg/m3, 1,8 -2 MPa). my guess is to use 6 layers 195 g/m2 twill weave, with 2 carbon stringers in the center. It would be great if you could post picts of your steps here especially how you make you C...
Hey PrfctChaos, could you evaluate these sections according to your protocol ? They are praised for their low drag and AoA tolerance with UAVs. Curious to see what these slightly reflexed profiles could bring to hydrofoils. https://www.aerodesign.de/profile/phoenix.txt 8.2% https://tracfoil.com/airf...
Looks exciting! Any videos? Possibly on the LIFT Instagram account where this pict has been taken from in April 2019. Does that work out of the box - or is some hacking needed? They are not sold as is yet. Maybe in 2021. You'll have to send them an email. A few projects like this on the DiY scene f...

OK, then. And what has just happened - the Lift is suddenly $2000 off. Must be a coincidence Do you mean you can get a brand new LIFT efoil for 10K$ today ? Since 2018, they've always been at 12k$ and they still are on the official LIFT site and on retailer's: https://www.realwatersports.com/product...
Waydoo funded by DJI and Takuma. Both maintain their reputation. I doubt very much that Takuma is a Waydoo partner since Takuma have launched their own efoil brand called eTakuma in Europe and Avante in the US. TAkuma launched their efoil in July 2019, and Waydoo in July 2020 with a Kickstarter cam...
