Another interesting aspect of the molded Supra is the wing joiner
options. The pilot can choose to fly 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 degree joiners.
I can see guys talking in a MoM flight line now... "How much weight
are you packin'? Are you using a 5 degree bend?" ;-)

The bagged Supra isn't restricted to only three wing joiner
angles. You can bend them to any angle you desire. :-) Actually, I
have found that all modern sailplanes that I have tried are grossly
deficient in lateral stability. Lateral stability doesn't matter
as long as the model is close enough to see clearly but I find I
need more dihedral as my eyes grow older.
