Stable glider V7a + Notch for rubber band launch (50m+ range)

This glider will be: - Furthest gliding

- Quickest to print

- Printable on Prusa mini

- Continually improved through Iterative design

Flight preparation: - Bend wings upward (5 degrees is best I've found) (Dihedral)

- Bend rear elevators UP (points nose up)

- Hold it just behind the wings

- Throw medium hard (or launch with rubber band)

Changelog:

V8: (coming soon) - Thicker Kline–Fogleman airfoil allowing for possbile joining of parts to make longer stiffer wings

- winglets

V7a-IS: - Added input shaping BGCODE (Input shaping, 5% infill (lightning).

V7a: - Lightning infill (5%) GCODE

- Even bigger notch for rubber band launch

- CFD analysis soon

VBW: - Added alternative 355mm wingspan model to glue together (will make a clip together version when I figure out how)

V6: - Removed wing area from V5.

- Added a KFm2 aerofoil to the wing (stepped wing)

- Enlarged wingspan by 5mm (still allows for skirt)

- Reduced wing thickness to 0.2mm

- Updated pictures to V6

V5(untested outside): - Scaled the wing size up by 100% in the Y direction giving the glider a lower aspect ratio
