Or like those frilled lizards with the head crest. Maybe I can intimidate any would be predators as well.
Does anyone have any idea of what kind of forces a 6 foot wide, 3 foot long wing would see angled up into the wind at say a 45 degree angle or more at say up to 70 mpH?
I was thinking of making the frame out of conduit and maybe trying foam covered in fiberglass. Like a surfboard with conduit just under the skin all aroundbthe edge. Then hinged at the front with drop down adjustable legs to get the angle if towing, or taper if unloaded
