The view is that IF the air/wind has disturbances (gust/bump) then the lower rated wing has a profile that is designed to offer more damping (more stable in pitch) equivalent to "automatic brake" temporary inputs by a pilot, but it comes at the cost of temporarily reducing speed on trajectory, and forward progress over ground. If the[…]

Please note that we have just found a sound bug in version 1.32b. This version is no longer available, but if you have already installed it, you can update directly to 1.32c from the Configurator. Note: if you are using the Configurator from a computer, you may[…]

The high-rated glider will creep forward slowly, even at the same speed. Cheers, Ziad Hi Ziad, that[…]

Top speed on a lower rated wing remains relevant for avoiding getting blown back over a ridge, in the case of an unexpected wind increase. If a lower rated wing becomes less efficient in glide at its maximum airspeed, that can be a bonus to[…]
