payback462 0 #11 September 16, 2004 PD-160 1.5:1 voodoo-V4 flew as would be expected, didnt have much glide, easy to sink, very predictable, didnt drop me on my ass. two break fires, one resulting in a locked toggle and another in spinning linetwists. (also have another ride on a pd-176 on rental gear, flew about the same.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diablopilot 2 #14 September 16, 2004 Quote what reserve do you have Have had Raven 150-M's Currently have PD126R's Quote what container I've had rides on a Reflex, and Mirage Quote what loading on the reserve 150's about 1.3 126 about 1.6 Quote how did it fly Tiptoe landings on all three. Quote what was the mal 1 and 3 spining diving linetwists. 2 a lost deplyment handle, resulting in a total. Done a handful of jumps on the SMART, as well and demo jumps on other sized PD, and PA reserves. Secret to good landings is figuring out how they fly before you reach the ground. It's usually nothing like your main.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBKid 0 #15 September 16, 2004 Raven II reserve Zerox container 0.94 lbs/sq.foot Never jumped it, but I expect it to be quite like a Fury, which I've jumped plenty, i.e. may have to hang off rear risers if you get a long spot, but easy to tell where you will be able to land.

AndyMan 7 #17 September 16, 2004 PDR 143. Javelin OJ Loaded at 1.7 It flew fine, flared nicely, and set me down great. No mal, I was flying a demo before I bought. That wingloading is not recomended for anyone unless their balls are of unusually large size, and their skill is of equal proportion. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.
