Yo Adrian,
They look like this? (The ones in the middle)
...from the "Viper Family" Build thread (which I realize now I didn't really finish, nor do a good job documenting the King Viper build).
The "old style" fins had a lot of surface area...probably too much. Lots of reports over the years of the tri-motor assemblies suffering rapid disassembly at max-Q. I think that the current style has a better chance of survival, without losing too much stability from decreased surface area.
I should've grabbed those fins out of the box when I saw them at Bong...put some nice bevels on there for you.
Yep, those are it. Thus my confusion when I opened the box... They didn't look like the ones in Tim's pictures.
That would have been awesome. I asked Mr Farrand, and he said he can do it for me. That's the one tool (well, wood working tools in general) I don't own. A router is sorta on my short list (I'm assuming that's what you use?), but a friend keeps telling me he has an extra and has offered it to me, but I haven't seen it yet...
