Post by: Paul Taylor on October 10, 2011, 10:35:47 AM

Anyone know what a target weight should be for a Force?

A Force or a Primary Force?

I always shoot for 70oz so I can feel good when it comes out at 50. ;D

Force not the PF.

My problem is I shoot for 48 and it comes out 70. HB~>

The Force is the flapped .40/.46 design by Mike Pratt? What's the wing area? I'd say 45 oz would be great, 50 if you must, and 40 if you can.  H^^ Steve

I have came to the conclusion that for just about any size stunt ship targeting 13 ounces per square foot of wing area ends up about right.

This would be about 55 ounces for a 600 sq/in wing and about 64 ounces for a 700 sq/in wing.
