Ventus 2 compared to Discus besides the obvious
Sorry I threw the D2 in there, my error. Also I should have specified, Ventus 2b. As I am only 5' 9" in height the V2a would be ok but with a wide chest it would be tight, V2b more suitable.
I am leaning toward buying a V2b. Many of the reports of the V1, if I may use that identifier, report the flight characteristics not flap use are what makes it tiresome to fly. The V2 as I have read does not have that same tiresome flight characteristic. Aside from flap workload is ease of handling similar between the Discus and a V2b. I hope I am posing my query in a suitable manner to achieve resolve to my deficit of knowledge. Dino
