Not clear what the difference here is in concept between my original idea and the tennis racket that you and I both really like, except the racket has unique real time positioning attributes.

In my test setup my intention was not to weave the solid wire grid, ala a tennis racket, and the epoxy dip glue process intended was to prevent/reduce wire vibrations by connecting the cross wires and maybe improve the cd as the epoxy hardened as it drains off, improving the trailing edge shape, even if
I have to dip/coat it a few times.

Regardless, I'll try a 9? tuff 3d mini square with wire and see how it looks before I proceed. I was also thinking with the diameter of the wire vs that of the cross-sectional size of the tuff, and the length of the tuff, wire induced turbulence would minimally effect the visualization results, but that would be an unknown until tested in my mind.
