Description
Made from lightweight .063/.080 5052 aluminum, these CFD-tested endplates are designed to improve the performance of your existing 10-14 inch chord airfoil. Available in both standard and high downforce configurations, they work to improve the efficiency of your wing by decreasing the strength of the tip vortices. In the Standard configuration, the lower portion of the endplate is straight to allow for the angular vortex mixing of high and low pressure flows, reducing drag over a rectangular endplate of comparable area by as much as 10%. The High Downforce Time Attack bend incorporates the same pressure relief slots above the wing for improved underwing efficiency, while the addition of angled trailing Gurney flaps further enhances the flow beneath the wing, allowing the freer-flowing suction side to contribute a greater proportion of the overall downforce. Both versions offer reduced drag over commonly used rectangular endplates, and it is also possible to pair either with our low-drag Serrated Gurney flap for even larger downforce gains of as much as 8% (depending on the wing angle of attack). NOTE: This product is made to order, so please allow 2 weeks for laser cutting, fabrication, powdercoating and shipping.
