 Anyone know of aerodynamic advantage(s) of the inverted-v tail on the
 Predators?

 I doubt it's aerodynamics..  It probably just keeps the prop from
 dragging on the ground.


 Matt-

It complements aileron roll.  Upright V-tails fight it.  There's also no blanking at
high alpha. (AoA)

Good analysis Chris. Makes sense. I know you guys have thought a lot about it.
