Default RE: Lanier Indicator advice--Please!

Ptulmer,
Thanks for the links to the Ace wings, and Flyinrog--you're correct--they are $7 a panel. Thanks!
I ordered 3 constant chort panels.

Pt--I did use the CG calculator on the ACProving Grounds link---I should have read ALL of the Charles Grant book in the high school library so long ago! By the time I got done, the figures seemed to indicate I could move the CG forward as much as 1/2 ". I will experiment with that.

I also saw on the Lanier site that wing kits are available. I'd imagine being built-up and lightly covered it would still be lighter than my foam wing. This wing kit is 316 sq in area, while my heavy foam wing is about 290 sq in.

This would affect wing loading more than before? Am I missing something here?
