Hey Bradn, Not being rude dude but, quick question: Your solution is? Keep it short and sweet so those of us with limited technical expertise get it and the designers and manufacturers can explore it. All for everyone having a go for everyone to benefit.

are they not both for lift?
shouldn't the mast be 0 lift just low drag?

Hey Johnny, thanks for the mast ideas, I will hopefully have access to a cnc machine soon so might be able to make a good mould up, Thought that since it will use quite a bit of carbon ($40) it may as well be the correct shape and be useful in other builds. does anyone know what a good mast profile ...

sizes strictly for courseboard use.
