I love my Ha725 with the Vtail stab (fuse 60, mast72) for winging.
For the wave I prefer clearly the Vtail vs the Ha195. But I would like to know the feedbacks of people who tried the Vtail chopped. Differences, advantages, inconvenients.

thank you

I like it better chopped. I thought that we the winglets had too much flex and it felt tracky at times.
ch?pped it's more lose and feels free, almost like a twiny if that makes sense. With clean conditions I really like it winging with all front wings. Sup foiling it's the only tail I use. I am like you, never really liked the 195, thought it was faster but also made for a stiffer ride

Chopped is much better, less flex but the V200 still does some weird things at high speed when you want to push it. I believe when you hit high speed the V200 flexes too much causing a nose dive from my experience. I like the HA195 better because of this. Run both on 50cm fuse at -1.

Agree. At medium to slower speeds the V200 works great. The HA195 is more predictable at all speeds though and I feel like I can push it harder because of this. 195 pumps better for me too.
