Hi,
I bought recently a tail wing 200(-2?) thin.
I tried today with 105+ fuse and 725.
I felt like I din not have enough lift compared my original 255(-2?). Someone how have same tail wing. Experience? Did you get more speed then the 255?
Thank you

What kind of speeds are you running?

Not quite the same thing but i have a different brand and on vmg kit, the stab is 250 while the slalom stab is 190 (there are smaller stabs but I'm not fast enough to benefit from them). Both are stable but they are definitely shimmed differently. You may want to tweak the shims a bit while benchmarking with a GPS. Smaller stabs really come into their own at faster speeds.

I was running around 20knots, I used for one hour and then change to bigger wings because the wind dropped down a bit. I can reach same speed with 900/255 . I will change shims next time and I think if I want to go faster I need to go straight downwind!!!
