Thanks for the tips.
It did not buzz initially, it only started just before it came off completely.
It already had the stalk at roughly 30% btw and its internal structure made it quite rigid; the trailing edge was a glued double layer. But I will use a solid wing in the final version.
Maybe I'll give it a slight shark fin shape, expanding the (bulky) base forward. Cant do much on the back of that as the spray nozzle sits there and the hatch needs to open fully.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
