Years and years ago someone built [kitted?] and flew a slope glider that used differential angle of attack - the wings pivoted around the lateral axis - for turn control.

Does anyone remember that? Any possible leads?

Hi Richard

I cant remember who kitted the plane, but believe it was called the "Samurai" .

Graham,

You had it. It was kitted by, of all people, SIG. I even found a review, but, alas, of the aileron version. I'm working away at it, will probably contact SIG.

Thanks,
