AWD and turbos are indeed where its at. I love my Subaru Impreza WRX STi. Nothing powers out of a turn like AWD with 3 LSDs.

I can't say for sure, but I am going to try to get a Triathlon 190 in a J3 once it comes in from Aerodyne (for $700! Thanks DZ.com). It should be similar (but not the exactly the same) as the Spectre. I was encouraged to do so a rigger I know who has put many jumps on a Tri 190 in a J3. I also got a good feeling from looking at Aerodyne's website, were I found pack volume info: Triathlon 190 : 420 cu in. Pilot 168: 416 cu in. That means the Tri is 1% bigger in pack volume than a smaller size Pilot. I would think that means they fit in the same container. Perhaps you can ask PD about a pack volume comparison between say a 190 Spectre and 170 Sabre 2 or something. Seth It's flare not flair, brakes not breaks, bridle not bridal, "could NOT care less" not "could care less".

I have a similar question, so I will just attach to this thread... Will a 190 Triathlon fit in a Javelin J3? It has a pack volume of 420cu. A 168 Pilot has a 416cu pack volume, and a 169 Safire comes in at 452cu, according to the manuf. websites. I can't find any pack volumes for Sabres. The only recommendation on Sunpath's site says 170zp max. Would it work if the reserve was a Raven I (180 sqft)? Thanks, Seth Looking at the numbers, are icarus and aerodyne measuring the same? A 188 Pilot, 440cu, is less than a 169 Safire? Can I fit a 188 Pilot in a J3???
