brenthutch 383 #2 November 28, 2007 Do a search. There are lots of threads about this topic. Readers digest version 7 open nice, stabel in deep breaks 9 better glide ratio, more flare Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UDSkyJunkie 0 #3 November 28, 2007 Most detailed, objective description is probably PD's flight characteristcs article on the Spectre. It mostly compares the Spectre (typical modern semi-elliptical 7-cell) to the Sabre2 (typical modern semi-elliptical 9-cell). Lots of other interesting and useful information as well. here's the link: http://www.performancedesigns.com/docs/Spectre-Flight-Char.pdf"Some people follow their dreams, others hunt them down and beat them mercilessly into submission."
