Neilzy Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hi im currently losing weight as ive had enough of being fat, so far not bad 2 stone lost and still dropping, stupidly when starting the diet i did not take in to consideration my flying ie the minimum wing loading which on my 34 Synth is 135kg i know im gonna have to change wings and currently looking into a new wing but just how far can i go before changing how close is it safe to get or pass the minimum weight on the wing.

alan_k Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hi Neilzy, well done on shedding the weight. Dudek stress NOT to fly underweight, you'll have to fly with ballast until you get a new wing. Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outkast Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Neil, at 147kg you are around ten KG heavier than me, my revo is 160 KG max, as I have already said, give it a go next time we are out and see what you think, buy the time you have decided what to buy you should be at a wieght wich will give you a good choice of wings.
