........ for those of you .... needing a fin having less draft
like in the caribean .....

we now have the diamond hvf ..... with on optimized out line !
being shorter in both directions

having almost the same efficiency !

being especially needed in very large hvps
since the draft ist there principally even more ....

and the physical handling of .... being even more critical !
like hauling it out of the water ....

...... do you remember back in 2001 ?

wenn you mentioned to have the fin hanging .....
so the whole boot would not have to follow the waves !

well ... mean time I found out ....
some people had been playing with this idea back in the 1970 !

but ... even though it seem >>> the only way to fly <<<

nobody so far has come up with some design
to work under all circumstances

we ...... at >>> http://de.groups.yahoo.com/proadesignde
have been coming up with some practical ways to make it work !

I reckon you still can under stand the language ........

here abouts we only post .... some .... of the result !
since nobody seems really interested .....

its kind of hard to under stand all of it ... too
even the vfp is harder then just weight

but the hvfp is much more complicated even .... then that !

you can see what happens .....

if the hinge does not have enough play
so the fin can move back ward
as a result of the resistance in the water >>>

to have a certain aoa at all times  !
especially when flying high ......

see the pictures 100 0090 / 91jpg at the same place for details
on such a model hinge .....

but it will be different on a full size !
having the same effect .... though ....

....... some table saws are running too fast !

heating up the foam on cutting
making the cut less then perfect !

this type of equipment has mostly universal power motors
meaning you can use an external power control device

or just a power diode with a power capacitor in parallel
this being in series with the table saw circuit ......

you will hear the difference right away
because it will make like a stuttering sound
because only half of the sinus is driving the motor ....

and will be running slower because of it !

make sure you are not using either of those
on capacitor start ac motors !

since they need the full power cycle to run with out problems
and those are mostly slow enough any ways ........
