  • Comment on "Gibbo Manta 15 meter single surface wing on an HKS 700e, a good idea or not?"

    I have both the Manta 12.5 and Orca 12. The Manta requires much higher RPMs but it feels a little more nimble, and is a little harder to land. I think the Manta needs a 912, but the Orca will do fine with a 582 HP range, and is easier to land. But feels a little stiffer.
