Wing loading: 6 oz @ 190 in^2 = 4.55 oz/ft^2
Should be: 4 oz @ 190 in^2 = 3 oz/ft^2
I flew it some today. The wind was blowing about 10 mph. Easy launches were
about 50ft. I need to advance my feather throwing tecnique even if it is a
heavy feather. The launches are a strait with about 1/4" rudder preset that
is released as soon as I can after release. The plane flys fast and has good
control. It is not a floater but I wouldn't have built it if I knew that it
was. It is fun to fly and if my next one is 1.5 to 2 ounces lighter it
should be even better.
Thanks Mark!!!
Mike
