DG-600 questions
Recently a set of DG-600 wings have shown up for sale. They are
damaged but don't apear to be beyond repair. I'm considering using a these wings for an experiment I've been toying with for some time. . I've never seen a DG-600 in person so I could use some help with a few basic questions. What is the weight of DG-600 wings? What is the max non-lifting weight of a DG-600? I found the empty weight and max gross weight but not the non-lifting weight. Does a DG-600 have automatic control hookups? Does a DG-600 have a flap/aileron mixer or are the control of the flap deflection and ailerons separate? Any other comments would also be useful. I would not be using the fuselage or tail surfaces, only the wings, flaps and ailerons. Thank you in advance. Dan Rihn ASW-20 WO

What is the weight of DG-600 wings? I believe mine were around 150 lbs. each. What is the max non-lifting weight of a DG-600? I found the empty weight and max gross weight but not the non-lifting weight. 246 kg / 542 lbs. Does a DG-600 have automatic control hookups? Yes, via two torsion tubes per side. Does a DG-600 have a flap/aileron mixer or are the control of the flap deflection and ailerons separate? The DG-600 has flaperons, not separate aileron/flap. Marc
