Wing Comparisons

Maintenance day for a couple of the wings - if you take care of your gear, it'll take care of you.


Size comparison between the Reedin 3.6m and the Ensis 4.5m.  You can see the difference in the span and the chord.


Here is one of the bigger differences - the strut has a significant arch.



Here you can see the differences in the reinforcements along the leading edge.



And here you can see the differences in the strut shape - the 4.5 has a much straighter strut.



And here you can see the size difference - nominally the difference is 0.9m^2




Don't forget to make sure your wings are dry before putting them away!
