The foils of the solar boat is a system that is comprised of the following:

* Wing design
* Foil assembly
* [[Autopilot]]

A small overview is given below what any of these signify in the hydrofoils.

== Wing design ==
[[File:Wing.jpg|thumb|The designed wing to be used on the solar boat.]]
The wing design is based on the calculation of the airfoil database website: http://airfoiltools.com/plotter/index

From this database an implementation has been made into matlab to tweak some parameters as well as a plot for generating the wing shape.

The matlab scripts are on the [https://git.engineersofinnovation.nl git] and can be found [https://git.engineersofinnovation.nl/matlab-scripts/Hydrofoil_Design here].

== Foil assembly ==
The foil assembly connects the wing to the foil mast and then to the hull of the boat.

== Autipilot ==
The [[autopilot]] is the control electronics that controls the servos of the foil assembly. This a signal PCB with that measures the angle of the solar boat and adjust accordingly towards keeping the hull above the water.
