I have a Ventus C and only have the 17.6m tips, and was wondering if there is anyone out there that has the original 15m winglets that they would be willing to part with.
From what I understand, Ventus A B and C had the same.

There aren't any original winglets per se, but M&H will sell you some fancy Maughmer designed ones. I have flown with those and Masak style and there is a big difference.

Handling was significantly improved with the newer style.

Schempp-Hirth produced 'mini' winglets and also supplied Masak winglets as a factory option so I guess you could say the mini winglets were the originals. TN 349-10 refers.

I have the mini winglets and have flown with them on my Ventus a as well as some Masak winglets that I use most of the time.
