But isn't the elephant in the room the Kestrel 4000 at around 500 g-f tared out?

Who says that the struts aren't tared out already? See...that's the problem...insufficient details.


I was looking at the P3C to 4000 differential on the Kestrel chart ~175 g-f. If the P3C 'true' baseline is ~675 g-f that puts the K4000 down around 500 g-f. If the P3C/Fuji data isn't tared out, surely they wouldn't tare out the 4000?? (!!!!)

Re the Shiv/Transition differential - just ran some averages and across (-5,0,+5) it's -82g-f for the Shiv; across (-15,-10,+10,+15) it's -190g-f. Makes Zirbel's ride at the Worlds look all the more impressive eh?

Has anyone seen any Giant Trinity Advanced (nosecone) data BTW???
