Aerodynamics - Blade ProfileOverview:
Generic information on airfoils, which could be applicable to the SynchroLite and UniCopter.
Data, notes and comparisons on NACA 00xx, NACA 8-H-12, VR-x, VR-7b and NACA 230 series airfoils.
Plus Wortmann FX 74-CL5-140 for inverted use as horizontal stabilizer on UniCopter.

Note:
All of the above airfoils can be plotted c/w coefficients on NVFoil freeware program.
Graphs:
The 3 following graphs compare the 4 listed airfoils. The horizontal axis is Angle of Attack [alpha].
