Wing Extention

What does everyone think? The only down side is that the back door dosn't fully open due to the wing hitting.

That actually looks coo, but the way the wing is sitting. It might actually
cause rear lift. Not exactly what you want at high speeds.

good find on catching that. The wing should be tilted forward a little bit more to be effective.

Props on the idea but not really liking it too much. However, that first pic is the nicest one I've seen of the orange Fits

It looks pretty cool. You did nice work. As to my own personal likings I like it better flush with the roof. But thats just me.

Cool BOM. Raising the wing is very nice. I like it. About the aerodynamics, the underside isn't particularly smooth. I don't think you have to worry too much about creating lift, just drag. Actually, wind noise may be a reason to lower it again.

Thanks for being creative, trying something new and sharing it with us idiots.
