- I found this Coe engine forwards rake. Actually, the rear part here behaves like a Slow Puffer Wing (those things turning the glider in a Slow Puffer 1).
Original backrake must be 4n, n>3. For n=3 (p12), it lays blocks. A n=2 (p8) stream destroys the forward engine in a dirty way.
I suck at rake/puffer adjustment, but I think it's possible to reduce the size of Slow Puffer 1 by replacing the "wings" with this dual-HWSS turner engine.
