Current plan: Cuff using HDPE. Cuff is 11 degrees and 18"L.
Doors of 55", just reaching 48" behind the bumper (legal). They can adjust the second break angle. Or just stay at 11 deg. I am hoping to tuft test and maintain attachment at 16 or 18 deg. This is to follow Aeroheads advice that drag is porportional to wake size, or as I call it, the 'aperture'.
Once I succeed on the basic tail I will put tail lights at the tips and add a foldable or detachable polycarbonate extension to ~96".
