Has it got a Prandtl lift distribution on the wing?

Thanks for your comment. This aircraft does not take into account a Prandtl lift distribution, but I have raised the outer ailerons a little, which I feel has the effect of reducing the adverse yaw.

What i thought watching it is, that maybe M shaped dihedrals would help for the sideslip? like some of your other birds have, can you make wings change the dihedral at the elbow and wrist to test configurations?

I tested changing the dihedral angle with a servo, but it became too heavy and was not effective. I think a moderate M-shape is effective for side slip. I would like to continue experimenting with the angle.

@@inakakoubouKANAI Yes, i can see that more dihedral = less performance in L/D and more weight = less performance at low speed and more stalls. To improve something, something else goes down - it is never ending circle in search for the optimum.. But hey, that's what science is, isn't it? :)
