Caution, BLAST AREA
Heres a couple pics of 2 differnet kind of 3 D planes TR'n together
Its Jess with his OMP 40 size EDGE profile, and Joel Coker with his 40% Carden EDGE540

Technically don't you get wake turbulence when the airplane is flying normally....
and yes, prop wash will get your models too!!!
sorry for the buzzkill, but just wanted to clear that up if anyone got confused.

Bernoulli's principal of lift is that the higher airflow speed over the top of the wing is at less pressure than that going around the bottom half. but they must equal when they are off of the trailing edge of the wing.

When 3Ding, the wing is not generating any lift, thus Bernoulli has got his feet kicked up enjoying a cold frosty. If no high pressure under the wing, then no low above.
I am sure JohnVH 3D's.
Great pics Gator. By the way, you don't have to warn anybody of wake turbulence if a 727 is torkin' on the airway.

your right.. i dont 3d.. i do small things.. i dont really care to do 3d i just like to fly around.. but if you read what i quoted then it applies. of course you are correct in saying that if your just torkin around.. then no. you dont have any probs .

I gotta see this.... Let me know next time you decide to tork your full scale 727 on the deck!!!

Sorry, guess I didnt make it clear, as I know everything you said but didnt want to put a dictionary statement in this thread. Flying normally to me= wings making lift. If you look at the pics the planes are hovering, therefore no lift, no wake turbulence.
I fly 3D, and full scale aircraft.

Id be looking out for the downwash from the prop!! Ive had my spads thrown out of the air from that alot of times in formation hovering!!!
