Less than 3 pounds.

Robert,
Would a wickerbill provide any noticeable improvement to this style (biplane?)wing (i assume the rest of your wing looks like a 3.8RS style wing?) And how would YOU attach one? adhesives?

Robert: Are you sure you don't have any of the prototypes that didn't make it onto Humpty Dumpty sitting around that need to get cleared out to free up space? I'd be happy to put them on the Turtle.

Less than £3 sounds like a good price

There is a spare one but it cot a bit more than 3 GBP to make. Jason: various modifications could, of course, make improvements but I would want to wind tunnel test to before instituting.
