OK, I need line for a new winch. Memphis Net and Twine seems to be the place most people use. My question is what test line are most folks using and how much?? I have mostly molded planes and a heavy foot on the pedal.
Memphis has braided nylon seine twine in two sizes that look right, 290# test (680 foot rolls) and 250# test (720 foot rolls). I'm thinking 3 rolls to start of either one (2,040 ft to 2,160 ft).
You want #24 (TWB-24) or #30 (TWB-30), with the latter being virtually unbreakable.
FWIW, I use 1/3 top #18 and 2/3 bottom #24 on groomed sod, and 100% #24 on cut twice a year field. I'll fly my Zagi before flying off ground requiring #30 'cause landing would be a beast too (I've not mastered catching).
