Default RE: what 35 % is the best for 3D

When in stalled flight or a high angle of attack (AOA) say like a harrier the plane will out of the blue snap on you and potentially depending how high crash or wing rock, where the plane's wings rock back and forth making it harder and harder to control. A llllllllllot of that stuff has to do with how well the plane is built and set-up thought. Incidences, control linkages, lateral balance is huge, etc.

Mark Leseberg is a good pilot, the plane does not make the difference in his case. I'm with Jon, a lighter wingloading is ALWAYS better. Your landrover may help you in a crash, but they break down, and cost a lot to run where a KIA will just hit those corners a lot faster, smoother, and better gas milage
