Crosswinds S.T.O.L. Stol Kit

The basic Crosswinds S.T.O.L. stol kit was developed to reduce or eliminate "MOOSE HUNTER STALLS", a spin initiated by an extremely uncoordinated tight turn which causes a snap roll entry into a spin which commonly happens without enough altitude to recover. The increased stability and reduced stall speed is a positive by-product of the leading edge cuff. The basic kit consist of a leading edge cuff, tip spill plates, inboard flap extensions and stol fences that seperate the air between the ailerons and flaps.

Crosswinds S.T.O.L.'s Full Performance Wing

Crosswinds S.T.O.L. with assitance from MicroAerodynamics has recently begun modifying and building a full performance cub wing. This full performance wing has evolved from real world research and developement, break throughs in engineering and shared product partnerships. Many of the modification and products this wing uses have been available since the 1970's some have just been made available in recent years. Each modification first needed to justify its existance and work in precise balance with the rest of the aircraft. The resultant wing features the the Crosswinds S.T.O.L. leading edge cuff stol kit with stall fences and wing tip spill plates. MicroAerodynamics generation II Vorticie Generators enhanced specifically for use with the Crosswinds S.T.O.L. leading edge cuff. Crosswinds S.T.O.L. extended wings and Concept Wing Tips. At the trailing edge the flaps are extended outboard about 3 feet and 6 inchs inboard. The ailerons are then extended outboard to the tip approxiamtely 2 feet. This combination adds no mechanical linkages and keeps with the simplicity of the cub wing design while maximizing wing performance and greatly reduces stall speeds, without sacrificing any roll response.  Sorry! still working on this area.
