The 115+ fuselage puts the front wing far forward, making it a lot harder to go crosswind comfortably.
Your kit should have the 95+ with it. Try it, but it is less stable due to it being a shorter fuselage. It'll be less powerful due to the front wing position.
You can also get the 105+ fuselage which has a less powerful front wing position but longer fuse so it's more stable than the 95+, which feels a lot better to me when i don't want to go hard upwind/downwind
Ok, interesting, didn't know about a 105+ fuselage. The 95+ I do not have since I bought a used gear set and it was not part.
So in the end it sounds a bit like shorter fuselage is better for crosswind, but provides less lift and stability. Going with less stability I guess I could learn, less lift is bad. So I would need maybe to increase wing size (front or back or both?) for more lift?
In terms of physics it is only the fuselage length which makes a foil an upwind/downwind foil?
