Default RE: Patriot XL and wing sheeting

LeFou:
As usual, these guys are right on the money. At best, you are going to go around 110 mph, the standard wing will normally hold up to this, you are plroviding additional insureance. The fully sheeted wing will look very nice done correctly and be quite strong. If you don't fly retracts frequently, be sure to check them for working freely after every flight without fail. Hanging up with mechanicals may pull your flight pack down to 0 during flight as the servo is stalled. Air retracts do not insure thay will come down when a gear is stuck in the well. ENJOY
