I decided to purchase an Ozone Roadster 3. I have had it for a few weeks and maybe 10+ flights. I am not an expert pilot but I can relay my observations so far. 

This is an incredible wing. It is very forgiving, especially on takeoff. I can make many different mistakes and it still gets me in the air. 

It does EXACTLY what I tell it to do all the time. But it seems to be very sensitive to brake input on takeoff. 

In the air, at cruise, the brakes feel a bit heavy but not overly so. The wing tip steering is marvelous and light. 

I have found a little roll while flying hands off and constant power. But it is easily fixed and settles with a little arm weight on the brakes. 

Being able to customize the position of the brake and tip steering magnets is for sure a plus. 

Very good move for me to purchase this wing. 

Noddyc, thank you very much for your response. Definitely one of the better non-biased reviews of a wing. 

I'm not an expert pilot so I want to learn by asking a lot to questions. Do you think that because the 3-26 is smaller, it is more responsive and came up easy? Do you need to set the trim out some to prevent flyover? 

You mentioned using a lot of brake on takeoff. More than your 28? 

Also, you said it climbed out faster. Do you mean rate of climb or ground speed?

Thanks again. Happy Flying

Yust did a flight with a demo Roadster 3 at Fly Spain  on a 30 km flight. Handeling to me felt very good ,more positive  than on my Roadster 2  . I love it so mutch that I ordered one when we got back on the ground.

Thanks noddyc. 

Can you please explain what you mean by the handling is more positive than the 2. Are you foot launch or trike? 

What size are your Roadsters? 

Did you see any difference in the lift and glide between your 2 and the 3?

I'm seriously considering purchasing a 3.

Did you find any unwanted roll with the 3?

Thanks again

I have looked at the manufacturer's descriptions of each but I would like to get impressions of individual pilots comparing the Speedster with the Roadster 3. I fly with a trike and have an all up weight of about 170 kg. So I know I need the large size.

Thanks for responding
