Austin Meyer is the creator of the flight simulator "X-plane". X-Plane reads in the geometric shape of any aircraft and then figures out how that aircraft will fly. It does this by an engineering process called "blade element theory", which involves breaking the aircraft down into many small elements and then finding the forces on each little element many times per second. These forces are then converted into accelerations which are then integrated to velocities and positions. You can read more about this excellent simulator at www.x-plane.com I prepared 4 different versions of the J22 for X-plane and they can be downloaded from www.x-plane.org. (no longer available...) J22 for version 6.3, 4 separate downloads A flight model update for X-plane 6.4 can be downloaded here.
ModelAs a little side note I'd like to show a little radio controlled model I made of "Röd Kalle". Is is almost completely made from hot wire cut Styrofoam. Wing span is 47" and the weight is 53oz (1.5kg). It is powered by a Graupner Speed 600, 7.2V motor with a 3:1 Master gear drive.
Here are 2 small video clips from a flight
