I don't  think anything else available comes close the the flying weight of 
the  Prestige, except maybe the Vivat, so they basically can't operate at 
lower  settings. The engineering and craftsmanship at Wistmodel are world 
class  and as far as I'm concerned, they set the standard that all others 
should  aspire to.


Ed what is the flying weight of your Prestige?
 
My Integral is in at 10 lb 8 oz. It probably would be less if set  up for 
masters sequences.
I have a lot of weight in the nose (9 oz) for my  intermediate sequences and 
my skill level.
If I took the servos out of the stab and moved them to the CG the model  
would weigh in at just under 10 lb
 
Of course the quality of the Integral is not that of the Prestige. I  agree 
the Prestige is a step above the rest.
 
Are you at the NATS?
 
Carl
