Tip
Tip: Expect different wing materials to behave differently; do not force the same handling on every wing type
How to do it: Adapt handling to each wing material's behaviour, rather than forcing one method on all
Mistake it fixes: Forcing the same handling on every wing material
Why it works: Different wing materials have different stiffness, twist, and bulk. Adapting handling to each gives better wings.
When it matters most: Fly tying, wings
