Announcing Angle Lab v1.0
  • Feel like your plane doesn't penetrate well or wants to slip out of thermal turns too easily? 
  • Would you like to optimize performance for varying weather conditions? 

Angle Lab is the tool to help you customize your wing's performance.

Inspiration
Many pilots have been experimenting with joiner angles for years, but doing so can be a bit perplexing and a shot-in-the dark. Angle lab has been a tool I've wanted to create for quite some time as I have seen pilots struggling with the joiner optimization challenge.

Play in the Lab
It is not practical to account for all variables and effects in a simplified model like this, but it does provide an incredible visual and directional aid. Play around with the input sliders and watch the plane and performance bars change in real-time to see what I mean!

Your Feedback is Welcomed!

This is version 1.0 of Angle Lab and is by no means the last. Based on input, I will continue to improve its capabilities and performance. Feel free to provide feedback here: Contact Us

See you on the field!
