The ping is binary. There is no progressivity of pingness. It either pings or goes thud. If you keep pumping after it reaches ping then you will eventually damage your wing.
Large diameter struts need relatively low pressures. Even pingworthy pressure is higher pressure than is necessary.
I wondered if wing shape, skin material, stitching, all need the same skin tension regardless of size.
Just by physics alone, a larger wing will need lower pressure to attain the same skin tension (similar to bike tire pressure).
So they should all have the same ping frequency (and musical note).
Or am I wrong?
