I understand that Zero Macready is totally wimpy, not flying XC, but it gives me a good chance of not landing out, and that is my priority. Having lots of fun though.



If you "don't" want to land out you need to "increase" your macready setting, you
have it backwards.

A higher macready setting increases the chances that you will make your chosen field even if you fly through more sink than expected.

I usually just leave mine set on 3 all the time.
