I have the 1050 wing and it is the ideal wing for my current light wind needs but it annoyingly sings to me.
I know methods have been posted previously however has anyone successfully solved this issue for the 1050 Black series.
If so I would appreciate advice on the techniques .

Was it a classic? Ella Fitzgerald or something more current?

My 1050 is silent, so you should definitely be to fix it.

First be sure it's not the stab.

Then do the trailing edge fix.

DFW, which stabiliser do you use?
I have the 370.

My HPS wings are silent, however the 420 tail is very noisy, so check the trailing edge of your tail.
370 is quite draggy for HPS which probably makes it worse.

I run the 370 tail on the 930/830 HPS pretty happy with the speed and turning so far but still early on in trying to figure out what I want these wings to do.would love to hear what others are running .

I'm running the 1060 BSC with the 370 stab. Love it! My next purchase is the 890 BSC. Having a lot of fun.

As far as the singing is concerned, yes, it sings, but I don't mind, it tells me I'm moving fast. Winging is too quiet anyway!
