Ed's Taurus had a high wing loading Cees? His turned out under 6lb. Over a near 6 foot wing, that's more akin to glider loadings. As Ed said, the big thing about Taurus was the thick wing, which gave him good speed control, a more constant speed regardless of direction, and therefore more predictable control response. The drawback was the unpredictable stall, which is not good for contest aerobatics, and why he needed extra 'up' for his spin. Mine needs the same, as even with the advantages of modern radio, the spin is still a bit a luck maneuver. Tailcones notwithstanding, the fat wing has the greatest effect on the drag of this airplane, as the wing does on any airplane.
