Wanted: Aerospoke

Nope their aerodynamics are shit, there is a lot more to aerodynamics than just having a symmetrical aerofoil shape :/, I meant exactly what I said and I stick by it with the tests to back it up until you can prove otherwise :).

Let's not be patronising James, I study aerodynamics, and actually, as far as the spokes are concerned, it IS as simple as using symmetrical aerofoils. Where it gets complex is the interaction between the flow coming around the rim and meeting the spokes. I don't understand the dynamics, and judging by your comment:

Nope their aerodynamics are shit

nor do you. As far 'tests' backing it up go, if you mean the page hippy linked to, these are not exactly clear. And even so, if you'd looked properly, you'd see that the aerospoke's performance is far from 'shit'. So, let's agree to disagree for now.

Or you'll get some of this:
