A custmer reveiw on the Falcon wing:
"D"
10/20/2011 01:06:15
Flew the Falcon a few times at two different times of year. Higher altitude LZ, in varying conditions. The last few flights I got to know the wing enough to push it a little bit more than I had previously. The Falcon was always responsive, with a 'snappy' feel. It's not a docile wing - it likes to play. But it never felt twitchy or reacted in a way other than what I expected based on control input. Laying into a turn it likes to drop into the turn, but is easy to flatten out if you want that. Pulls up easy during launch, but once above the 45 degree point, will try to fly on overhead and overshoot if you don't ease up on the "A"s a little once it starts to come up. During a forward, it may be easier to just be ready to run your butt off as soon as you feel the tension on the wing start to relax as it moves to apex. Landing exhibits loads of stored energy to burn out. It's a really fun wing.
Looking over all the fabric, seams, lines, risers, found no flaws or weaknesses in the construction. Well built and fine quality workmanship.
For the price, let's get real - this is a lot of wing, a lot of fun, for not a lot of money.
